Just incase your not familiar with these coilovers i can tell you now they are superior over any tein setup ;) what would set you back £1000 has cost me half the price :D.

I got the BC racing ones the other week. The build quality and the ride etc is also far better than the Teins i had on. Also all the damer is adjustable so you can get the ride just perfect.

 

The differace between the hard and soft is amazing.

I soooo wanted these for mine but thought i'll wait til i see where the car sits with its lowered subframe before wasting any money lol

they are lovely arnt they :D

 

Have you fitted them yet?? what spring rate did you go for??

The original ones on the bc are 12 and 10 but Dave said they were way to hard lol!!! So i got them to put 8 and 6 on but it didnt cost anything extra :)

 

They give a really nice soft ride over the teins but you can stiffen them up. But you just cannot drive on the road with them in stiff its rediculas tbh.

 

Get them fitted raining or not. I was so excited i was laying down in a river :rofl: :rofl:

 

If they are the same height as mine. then you will have to raise them up a little as i couldnt get my foot under. but you can now...... just :D

right i got them fitted, had a little drive and everything seems ok apart from not being able to get the front as low as i had b4... hmmmmmm maybe they will settle a little overtime. will see.

You adjust the height from the bottom of the of the shocker and not via the spring like normal coilover.

 

Have you done this?? You should be able to have it so it is sat on the floor :confused:

what suspension set up did you have before? looks pretty low in your sig!

Ive adjusted the bottom to its limit, ive also only put on about 5mm of preload, its not as low as it was b4 :( hopefully it will settle.

Well i was advised to set a little droop on the springs which enabled me to slam the car, so all is good, anyhow Driftworks rang me today and are sending me out a different set of lower mounts for the coilovers which will give me even more adjustment and still have the preload i need for the mot man, they want me to test fit them and measure the highest and lowest settings for them, i will also be exchanging the old mounts. Looks like im the guinea pig on this one.... I must be the first z32 with them fitted by the looks of it...... Will see how i get on at bedford autodrome on monday, cant wait to test them out properly and share the in car vid with ben at driftworks, maybe it will get posted on the shop advert page woohoo :D

Good news :duffer:

 

The only problem i find with vids inside. is they dont give off any sence of speed. also you will not be able to see how good the shocks are :(

 

You could try and get some shots from the outside. in some S bends chicanes etc. That would be cool :cool:

I will be able to tell if they are an improvement, already feel alot more stable and predictable.

 

The shocks will be able to take the strain alot better than the teins not to forget they are a monotube desgin with damper&rebound adjustment, spring preload and separate hieght adjustment they are a massive step up from what i was using b4.
