Bc Br Coilovers On R34 Gtt

[V28VX37]

I just talked to BC technical support.

They recommended 6/5 for 'fast street' and 8/6 for track use.

They also said only the rubber tops (RA) make sense on double wishbone.

I've got BC BR RS 6/5 and they're great for the street.

I just looked up the difference on the UK site between RS and RA. It seems that the cheaper RS (which is what I run) has rubber top mounts for both front and rear, whereas the slightly more expensive RA has pillowball top for front and rubber or none for the rear.

I assume the pillowball top has camber adjustment on MacPherson struts, so it's of no use with our double wishbones. Go the RS's.

FYP

They are a good cheapie solution but they are in no way magic, a quality set of coilovers will do so much more than the BC will..... I run them with no complaints, but if the car becomes more track oriented then they would be one of the first changes.... They are comfy though!

Yeah, I probably over exaggerated their performance

They're fine for street, however their damping isn't really great...it mostl changes the rebound from what I understand.. and for track use you'd be looking at something that lets u set bump and rebound independently (plus other things like external oil reservoir). I think HSD does this and some of the more expensive jap brand ones.
