SAMSONAS – BMW E8x / E9x 3-way

Description

Samsonas Motorsport 3-Way – BMW E8x & E9x

The Samsonas 3-way kit is a professional solution for competitors who demand complete control over vehicle dynamics in all conditions. This system elevates the BMW E8x and E9x platforms to an entirely new tier of mechanical grip, offering independent compression and rebound adjustments that allow you to soak up harsh bumps precisely without sacrificing high-speed stability.

Practical Modularity

The architecture of the Samsonas 3-way dampers is engineered to integrate seamlessly with various BMW E8x and E9x configurations to meet the demands of distinct motorsport disciplines:

• Standard Knuckles (E8x / E9x): A heavy-duty, robust upgrade designed for the factory steering setup.

• M-Model Knuckles (E82 M / E92 M): A configuration dedicated to professional stage rallying. Utilizing the "M" knuckle allows for a longer-travel front strutassembly, which is absolutely critical for maintaining continuous tire contact patches on demanding surfaces.

• Wisefab Compatibility: The dampers are fully adapted to work in harmony with Wisefab control arm and knuckle kits. This makes them the definitive choice for professional drift builds where specific suspension kinematics and clear clearance ranges are required at extreme steering angles.

Reservoirs mounted on flexible hoses(remote reservoir), which simplifies mounting within the chassis and ensures optimal cooling. The shock absorbers are fully rebuildable and engineered to withstand extreme thermal loads under competitive conditions.

Full 3-way Adjustment

The system allows for individual tuning of the rebound force as well as compression damping across two separate velocity ranges (High/Low Speed Compression). This enables a flawless chassis setup, balancing high-speed bump stability with crisp steering responses:

• High-Speed Compression: Controls the response to rapid impacts, such as bumps, rocks, or track curbs.

• Low-Speed Compression: Manages vehicle body balance during braking and corner entry, reducing nose-diving and body roll.

• Rebound: Regulates the speed at which the wheel extends, instantly stabilizing the car after clearing bumps or landing from jumps.

Available Specifications

• Gravel Spec: Optimized travel and progressive valving, engineered for stable jump landings and maximum traction on loose track surfaces.

• Tarmac Spec: Minimized body roll and maximum handling precision on circuits and smooth tarmac surfaces.

• Drift: A custom setup developed to maximize stability, predictability, and ease of initiation while driving at sustained high slip angles.

The kit includes:

• 2 front shock absorbers with springs and adjustable camber top mounts

• 2 rear shock absorbers with springs and top mounts
• C-spanners for ride height adjustment
