I was thinking of getting BC Racing. I know some have had them and had no bad words to say about them. They're only a little less and just as good from what I hear.

I would beg to differ. I have the BCs and love the ride. Rode on my friends G with KWs a few days ago and it was bouncier (at around the same height and dampness)
Didn't say anything to him, but I would go BC again if I had to do over for any reason


Now I'm sure that the $2,000+ systems are better than both, but I wouldn't know cuz most ppl whose G's I experienced have the lesser priced sets.

as with all coils it depends on how it is adjusted, also Tire size and pressure contribute tor ride quality. I rode in a car with BC, on factory wheel and a car with KW on same wheel on different car and prefered KW much more.

I've only run factory springs and bc-r and have no issue with the bc. Had some issues early on and actually had remarkable support from them. Now- that's going back over a year ago but if you're looking for a solid entry level coilover I would not hesitate to recommend. Are you getting something that's as good as a product twice as expensive? No... But you're getting a.solid product for what you're paying for.

On their squishiest setting you're getting a ride that is slightly tighter than the non-sport stock suspension. Never rode In a sport- so not sure if they're different springs.

Anyway I know some of the guys g90 is talking to (I think) and ill agree there are better but then again for the right price you can get improvements on anything.

Well, the 6MT is definitely a better choice when factoring in costs. But the 5AT can still be fun too when FI.

VLSD will make it more fun in the mean time if you go FI later. Transgo is always nice too.

Doooeeeetttttt!!! lol

I plan on getting it soon. Was gonna just trade valvebodies with on already in it since a friend of mine did a 6MT swap. Come to find out, I need to have my TCM reflashed for it to work. Hopefully I can find a deal to make that happen.
