BC Racing Coilovers - Cheapest place to buy?

Hey guys - As the title suggests, I am a Canadian looking to buy a set of BC Racing BR coilovers. Does anyone know of a vendor that offers free shipping to Canada by chance? If not, who sells them for the cheapest that you know of?

Cheers!

I always thought BC Racing stands for British Columbia Racing, and I am not making it up. Of course I infer BC and Megan are Taiwanese. But hay, they know better if they brand them as Taipei Coilover Perfromance ... Happy Chinese New Year. Too bad Mini is not a dog but a hog.

My understanding is the BC and the Megan coil overs are made in the same facility and are essentially the same. Many will say that BC's are made with better materials. I have them Megans and really like them. They are a little less expensive than the BC's.

From other posts the BC's have more welding where the tube hangers and eyelink tabs are attached. Also thinking that the Megans can provide a lesser amount of drop than the BCs. One member posted that the Megan rep said you can drop as little as 3/4" if you wanted.
