In our opinion, BC Racing coilovers are the best value on the market - great handling, high quality and an affordable pricetag. Also, their spare parts department is second to none - if you ever break a spring or damage the topmount bearing - you don't need to throw the coilovers away like other brands. We fitted these to our own C30 around 2 years ago and they have never missed a beat!
We offer two variants of the BC Racing Coilovers.
BR/RA - Normal style with Front Pillowball Topmount. Perfect for those who want to fit & enjoy.
The BR series coilovers use a large 46mm diameter piston in a 53mm diameter damper body to maximise oil capacity. As the damper unit opearates the oil contained within heats up. The viscosity of oil changes as its temperature varies which can lead to changes in the damping characteristics of the unit.
BC Racing only use a very high quality oil with their coilovers but go that extra mile to maximise performance and build their BR range with a large 53mm diameter damper body. This increases the capacity of the unit which increases the volume of oil contained which in turn reduces the peak temperature and so significantly improves damper performance.
RM/MA - Inverted Front Shock with Camber Adjustable Pillowball Topmount - Upgrade option for those who want to dial in the suspension for track work.
The BC Racing RM series feature high quality damping adjustable monotube inverted dampers at the front or front and rear, depending on vehicle. The RM coilovers offer the majority of the features of the BR series but with the additional benefit of the inverted damper unit. Inverting the damper unit brings with it a number of advantages.
Unsprung weight is reduced by moving the oil and gas reservoir way from the hub and attaching it to the shell. Unsprung weight is vital to a cars performance as a lighter wheel and hub assembly which readily moves in response to road bumps will have more grip when tracking over an imperfect road.

You must use a corrosion inhibitor when fitting these coilovers to protect them from rust and salt. We recommend using ACF50 CORROSION INHIBITOR.
