BC Sports BR Type Coilover Damper Kit

916MKIIIx2 · 04-25-2010, 02:36 AM

Alright, just got these in the mail from wesellcarparts.com, my first question is... does anyone know if these come with pre adjusted settings for an MKIII? Then my next question is, has anyone else tried these out? What do you think of them?

No, coil overs generally do not come preset... actually, I've never heard of any coming preset. No experience with this make though

Any idea on how to setup the ride hight so it doesn't sit lop sided when i install them? Or am I just going to have to play with it on the rack?

So, how did the install go? Have any pics of before and after install? How did you like the coilovers?

Easily comparable to the feel of the TEIN SS damper kit I tested, came with adjustable camber plate and it does get some big camber if you want it, rides really smooth with the dampers in the 1-8 stiffness range, and in the higher ranges makes the 3400lb supra feel like a feather, hardly any roll with the coilovers alone. I'll post some pictures up, I'm still trying to figure out how to get it lower without bottoming out on every small crack. I would recommend this for others looking for something a little cheaper then the TEIN SS series.

This is the only one I have before the coilover swap, its on eiback springs and struts in this picture, right after picking it up from the first owner.

916MKIIIx2 · 08-27-2010, 05:47 AM

YAY manual adjustable knobs of imbaness, also my radiator and blow-off valve which i never got to post pictures of in other threads, theres also a custom routed tranny cooler and replaced the hoses with steel braided but i was too lazy to take pictures in the wheel wells
