Default Megan VS BC

Another thread i know that the BC's have bigger internals but for daily driving and a smooth ride and best comfort and a longer life span is it really worth it to spend the extra cash?

its all subjective, you will not know until you try both and decide. But I would side on BC racing, since i do have that setup on my car.

I'm having the same problem. Trying to decide on Megans or BCs, but I don't know any IS owners who have Megans or BCs around here.

I am debating on Megan LP or BC Coilovers as well. Does the BC come with adjustable pillow mount? Does that help on camber? Just want to make sure if I decide on the BC I am paying for what it's worth and make usage of the pillow mount..any advice is apprciated.

ISX50 does not use camber pillow mounts! BC's are really good!

BC are better but lifespan is all subjective to how the driver uses his vehicle. I think you will get about the same life span out of each unit. I have owned the BCs are a very good unit. Megans are good to and cheaper. BCs over Megan though.

If ride comfort is the main reason get the softer spring rates.

Everyone who has Megan's absolutely LOVES them. There is a huge thead on here about it on here. I'd say it really depends on what sticker you want to put on your car, haha.

Here is the thread about the Megan's.

FYI, BCR coilovers have better internals than the Megan Racing ones. Shoot a PM to CircuitMS (vendor) and he can give you the details. I would say the BCR would be more bang for the buck.
