BC coilovers installation...

There is a nice thread (sticky actually) on this over in the GEN 1 forum. I thought I would try and get one started for GEN 2. I will be installing mine soon (hopefully this weekend) . I will try to take some pictures along the way and do a write up after the install.

I thought maybe we could start with comments from those that have already done this. For example:
  • Any issue you had with the install.
  • The springs you are using.
  • Where you have your dampers set.
  • Is your setup tailored to: daily driving; street performance or track use.
  • How it compares to stock in ride and performance.
  • Amount of drop.
  • Other notable comments.
Lets try and keep this thread topic specific.

Offered to me from a friend...

Softer than stock. 10 clicks.
Aggressive street 15-18 clicks
Track 28 clicks rear 23 clicks front

I'm sure everyone has their own settings but that what he uses.

HTH's,

Mark
