Got my BC coilovers.

import111 · 04-16-2009, 07:18 PM

The BR series BC coilovers that I ordered showed up today. They look good. I can't wait to install them, though I am going to wait until my rear camber arms get here so I can do it all at once, and get an alignment done soon after install. Here is a picture of them.

Once they are installed, which might be a few weeks at least, I will post up what I think of them, and pictures of the ride height I decide on.

Please update us!
I'm looking into these coilovers also.
Did you have any other choices? Was there a certain reason why you chose these?

import111 · 04-16-2009, 08:18 PM

Not many other choices yet, which is a lot of the reason I went with these. These seem to be such a great suspension for the $ and the spring rates are exactly what I had on my 05 STi and I think they will work very well with the Z.

Nice! You will enjoy them for sure.

He doesn't have the 370Z on the list of cars yet, but tell him what you want and he should be able to get it for you.

Tell Stephen Ryan sent you if you order anything.

res0zsfa · 04-01-2011, 11:59 PM

Updates?

import111 · 04-02-2011, 12:29 AM

Coilovers are still performing awesome. No issues at all. Been through 3 track days and around 20K miles of hard street driving. I had Tein Flex coilovers on my 05 STi and they came loose a lot, and I had JIC coilovers on my 01 2.5RS and 1 of them got stuck on full stiff setting. The BC's are proving to be very reliable so far.

RedBullRR · 04-04-2011, 08:05 AM

great update, thanks.

sktvietdragon · 05-02-2011, 02:41 AM

how do you adjust the rear damper when everything is installed?

What's the best height setting? I just installed these and I am having some rubbing issues in the front and some clanking noise in the rear.
