Mild track setup (BC Racing ER)

I would recommend looking into Stance Coilovers, not only are they a solid option. They are headquartered not to far from you in Wheeling, IL. With their XR1 line up

For your other questions, you will want to have the toe bolts to be able to get the most out of the alignment even at that height. Front camber arms are not needed, but they help with getting the car dialed into your driving style.

If you have any questions at all shoot us a call at 410.593.7080

Talking

First. Get plenty of face time with the windshield at the track before doing major up-grades. This way you will have a feeling in what you need and want. Going down this rabbit hole will get $$$$$$$$ Dumping money into this before hitting the track can and will be $$$$$$ if you guess wrong on what you need.

Before hitting the track. Things to do. Bleed your brakes with good brake fluid. Use at least Motul 600. Oil cooler. Get a 34 row. People will tell that you don't need that much. But as your speed increases at the track. The hotter the engine will be. Do it once and be done. If you have a manual. Wrap your clutch line down be the drivers side header with insulation. This will help keep the fluid from boiling. And keep the reservoir full. Same with the brake reservoir.

This is interesting and I'm actually a little surprised to hear this. I know a few people who have said good things about Stance coilovers, but only in the street/show arena. I haven't heard much about their track performance.

You're not wrong! Even at the XR1 / entry level though?

Now you've got me looking in a whole different direction! I am looking at the XR2s (local support would be great) but really can't find a lot on them. Any input on how they stack up against the BC ERs?

Since your only weekend and track use I would go stance. The be spring rate will be too soft for any real track use. My z is a daily and the powertrix 12/11 swift setup is just fine and on track it is even better. It’s arguable if stance and powertrix are the same (same factory but that really doesn’t mean anything in terms of function) but the stance spring rates and the way that the adjustments actually make a difference (not 5 clicks just to finally make a noticeable difference) is what would make me take them over bc.
