WOW what can I say they have some of the best customer service and some of the best well built "budget coilovers" on the market I have had them for the past 3 weeks and the ride is so smooth even at 16 clicks. They totally remind me of my friends tein flex's because of the ride quality


This is all the info that i have right now since the coilovers have yet to be released from what i understand



The specs are as follow
BR Series:
30 way adjustable dampers
ride height adjustable
camber plates (front)
pillowball front and rear
monotube design-- I was also told they have a inverted design
46mm piston- Bigger then megan,
53mm body
redesigned upper spring seat and lower lock ring
rebuildable

1yr manufacturers warranty

Msrp is 1250 on the kit

I will have a full review after justdrift in a few weeks.

Also BC makes coilovers for alot of "JDM" companys ie; greddy,apexi and megan

I have stance's on my good 240sx and BC racing on my beater. There is a difference, but honestly, not enough to justify the difference in price for the casual driver. If you are hardcore into road racing then I can see a difference.

I paid 799 shipped for the BC racing, and around 1200 for the stances.

The stances definitely have better damping. As you go over big bumps and even little ones, the stances are more composed. The BC racing coilovers are a little more bouncy.

For those wondering, I called BC racing before I bought my coilovers and they were awesome. They just sounded genuine and they assured me that they will service any of their models.

I forget what model I have, but the new model is supposed to be much better than the one I have. The one I have is similar to megan racing one, but different. The new one is a completely new design with beefier stuff. This is what they told me.

Hmm that's interesting. I just ordered a set of Apexi EX-V coilovers for a S14 for a customer and when the box came in, there was a huge MADE IN TAIWAN on the side of the box :P

check out this write up from driftbrigade

I got them from bc, but if you check out some of the evo and sti forums there's a few dealers but again i dont know if these are released yet for the 240's.

And just like LB said most if not all 'jdm coilovers"are made in taiwan.

Like Michelle said, these come highly recommended by the guys in the Subaru and Evolution forums. I found these coils are quite popular outside the US. Feel free to do your own research. I'll start you off. Here's one review: http://features.evolutionm.net/article.php?id=84

I got a set for my S14 from Ravspec a few months ago, and couldn't be happier with them. http://www.zilvia.net/f/showthread.php?t=115562

BC Racing just released the BR series. Which is a step up of the VH model. 30 way adjustable, but with 46mm piston (larger than megan and greddy).

Also inverted version available soon.
