I wish the stock wheels came with more aggressive offsets. Drop + stock wheels = massive tuck.
Can't wait to see pictures with the adjusted rears and hopefully some new wheels!

is this the G37 setup or did BC make one specifically for the 370z? I heard rumors that the g37 suspension fits the 370 but the car dosen't share the same weight and wheelbase. Would that affect the over all handling and ride quality of the car?

No these are 370Z specific. The G37 coilovers will bolt up, but the shock bodies are too long so you can't drop the car much below stock ride height. Not to mention the different spring rates for the G37 vs. 370Z.

Thinking about KW V3's myself. After talking with Doubledown for a while the other day he almost has me talked into coilovers. I did alot of reading yesterday on them. They sound like they are well made. Little pricey though.

Ok, looks great! Well, if you want some pre-orders your going to need to post some pricing info :-) Also, I have heard of the problems some G37 owners have had with the noises, so please talk to them to see if they have addressed this issue with the new design.

Thanks :-)

I am waiting on some photos from BC of the actual product and then I will start a for sale thread with prices, but the BR series will be $999 shipped and the ER series will be $1850 shipped.

As for the G37 coilovers, they were originally offered with a metal pillowball mount, which is a little better for performance but the trade off is the possibility of noise. After the complaints, BC switched to a rubber mount and the problem was solved.

Nice! But they seem a little to low for my taste.

They are height adjustable. You don't have to make yours as low as I did.
