i've heard good things about BC's from both the 370 and 350 communities. might be worth a shot but yea, definitely get a pro shop to install them and set them up properly

That's the nice thing though, is that even if you aren't a "track junkie", coilovers give you the flexibility to change ride heights and dampening settings.. Coils let you get stupid low, or keep it stockish if you'd like..

Nothing wrong with doing it for looks too.. :)

oh and pm sent on pricing

Thanks Liquid! i just checked out your photoshoot again, your stance looks really nice.

Yea, definitely taking it to a shop. if i do it wrong, i can't exactly jjust drive over to a shop and say 'hey can you finish installing my suspension?'

As for the debate of springs vs coilovers.... it can go on for ever and it all boils down to budget, and individual expectations, and personal preference.

Jeff, let me know if you need any help, have a any questions, or want to order.
I have been a chassis and suspension specialist for quite a while now, have TONS of Z suspension experience and am a top level vendor for both SPL Parts as well as BC Racing North America. I also not only have a great and close business relationship with both companies, I also am good friends with the owners of both of these companies.

Not sure I entirely agree with that, the adjustments are pretty quick and easy on the BC so he should have it dialed in to a happy place within a couple of days. Good entry level coilover I say.
