The OFFICIAL Coilover Thread
Thanks carstedt looks good.
For the most part its not horrible but it can be very violent at times. I feel the front struts bottom out over certain bumps and it literally moves my dash! The sound is so bad that I can't believe my tires haven't blown out or bent the rims yet. I feel the airbag is gonna pop out one of these days
I think the springs are too soft for the drop it is. If that makes any sense.

thats y ill never slam mine because i dont want a rough ride wher im feeling every single bump and feeling lik my struts are bout to blow...i put mine low enough to take away sum wheel gap but still high enough wher its a pretty smooth ride
Im looking at getting the bc br types and wondered if people like them ill have a 18x9.5+30 rim on the car probably gonna take the locking rings out maybe on the coils if i get the bc's

They aren't made anymore iirc, which is why I chose not to include them, but if you find some used somewhere they would be a good choice, manufactured by the same company who makes the stance coilovers
And Randy that looks great man, I didn't realize the BC's went that low

Thanks guys, I like the way the BC's ride and they go low enought for me at the moment. They can go lower if I take out the lock rings but my cv axles dont like them already. haha I need someone to make mounts for the auto asap!
I'm assuming your getting bad axle bind? Any other problems?
Did yours come with the BC endlinks?
Can you adjust the rear dampers with them on the car?
THANKS!
Just real bad axle bind. Mine came with the new BC endlinks and the rear dampners are kind of apain to adjust on the cdar but its possible if you have little baby man hands. hah
Also, how much are you gonna pay for yours? Caus eI can get them pretty cheap from Import Image Racing if you'd like

OK, I really like what I've read about the BC's and I think those will be my choice. Also from a financial standpoint.
I see from your pics RandyO that it's quite low. I don't think I'll be going that low with them, do you know how much higher they have to be so you don't have axle bind?
Being my DD in MN I will probably get lazy and not want to adjust from summer to winter, so I want to find a nice middle ground. I want lower than my Pedders. I had Sportlines before and I thought that was a pretty good ride height, maybe even a tiny bit lower. I had no issues in winter with my Sportlines and winter tires since I have an LS.
So hard to choose. I just need to hurry up and save and get something before the end of summer.
