i think i might be able to swing a loan out of my 401k for a group buy

 

I might consider getting in the group buy. I'm gona wait on perryrace's review.

 

goup buy

 

was it $1K for all 4 coilovers (Front & Rear)?

 

Yes $995 delivered. I will be sure to post how the car handled after the weekend.

 

it's the same as Megan Coils.

 

thats what i have been hearing too.... sigh...

 

yup! just painted black and gold. Looks good though.

 

Update:

The track was wet all weekend. (again) While difficult to push the car in the marginal traction conditions (mostly due to all of the cars electronic nannys) I was able to dial in the suspension to an acceptable level. More to be done for sure. However to date the rebound, ride height, and spring pre load all offer enough adjustment for the car at the track. Adjustments are easy with the supplied wrenches and rebound controls.

I am beginning to rethink all of the times I have had to spend twice this $ amount for a set of coil overs for other cars. These do the job pretty darn well.

Defcon5Es - I had never heard of Megan until this AM. I did some checking and am told the following:

"BC does produce Megans coilovers for them overseas, but Megan is the lowest line BC produces. The actual BC coilovers are higher quality."

Interesting. I do not know what differences there are (quality) specifically between the two.

Perryrace, just wondering if you had gone back to the track when it was dry and actually push the car to the limit.

 

$850 Shipped, anyone use these guys before?

 

Found a review on Speed Corps, looks decent. Close to my area too.
