Default New Coilovers Available for IS-F - BC Racing

We want to let all you guys know that there is a new option for coilovers on the IS-F. They are BC Racing BR series coilovers, dual-height adjustable, 30 click damping range and options for rubber or pillowball mounts.

They were tested out by a vendor of BC Racing, and he has had them on the car for a few months now with no issues, and he loves them

Here are a few pics:









Rates are 14k/10k , you can choose custom rates when you order. You can also specify front and rear rubber mounts or go with pillowball bearings.

Here is a link to our FS thread which includes pics of the coilovers and all the technical specs as well as BC's history;

We work closely with BC so if you have any questions just let me know

I ordered a set of coilovers from Curcuit, very easy to deal with. I got them installed by Total Auto Pros in PHX, AZ the guy's in the shop where very impressed with the quality of the BC product.

I ordered the rubber mounted and Im running them at 15 clicks right in the middle to start out, the ride feels great you still get the road noise when you go over imperfections in the road but no more jarring of the car, the suspension soaks it up.

Ride height in the front stock from the bottom edge of fender to ground was 27.125" after install 25.75"

Rear stock 26.00" after install 24.5/16"

Thanks to Circuit and here are a few quick pics I took.
