Coil overs installed

I installed a set of BC coilovers on my 09 Ralliart yesterday.

I was able to do this in my home garage without any special tools etc. Had no issues with fitment and was able to dial in the front end to -2 degrees negative camber with little effort. (had to take the car to a shop for the alignment)

I wanted this much camber as a starting point as the car will be on the track this weekend and I can dial it out at the pillow ***** later for street use.

The rebound adjustment attachment (cable extension) routing for the rear coilovers was a bit tricky but worked out well.

All in all happy with the units. I got them from Darkside Engineering for under $1K delivered.

No the one I installed are a different version without the remote reservoir. They are titles as "BC Racing coilovers" on the evo 8 page. When I ordered I just added a note that I wanted them for a Ralliart as instructed by Darkside as they are not listed on their web page yet.

^Could you please divulge a little info in regards to the type and why it fits the 09 Ralliart please. I am curious if you could announce an official release on this product if all is good on our cars.

Are the coil overs for the Ralliart the same spring rate as the EVO X?

What do you wants pics of? The car ride height etc can be stock or up to 2+ inches lower. As they are already on not really much to take pics of. Let me know happy to assist.
