BC as with many C/O company just sends you new shock cartridges. No shipping your units anywhere. DIY FTW

Fortune Auto hands down. As someone else said, they are built a lot better, better R&D, and you can get custom springs, and valving to match. I had them on my IX MR, and for the short time they were there before I sold the car, I loved them.

just make sure you get them corner balanced. I'm thinking abotu another set for my X SE.


A coilover that's not too expensive (about $1400) that nobody really talks about anymore, but are GREAT coilovers are Buddy Club Racing Spec coilovers. They are inverted monotubes, 15 way adjustable, whatever rates/valving you want, and they LAST.

I ran those on my IX MR for over 100,000 miles, and when I pulled them off, cleaned them, and sold them, they were still in excellent shape. the shocks were still fine, so were the body, and the springs. the guy rolling on them now loves them. they were never rebuilt or revalved, and I put those things through absolute hell on the track and the street.
