I will do my best to keep everything updated. Personally, I have decided I am going to hold off my spring install for now as it doesn't make much sense to pretty much pay for 2x the labor. If the coupe setup gets released soon I am going to be pretty tempted to find out if that is a viable setup to use... however trying to wait until they release the sedan variation.

Thats something else in the back of my mind... If I had a buyer for the springs lined up I think I would do that too lol.

Well if the AWD coilovers didnt come out then i would've bought your H&R springs but only wouldve used the front springs to drop the front of my car more, but now BC released coilovers for the AWD im buying those instead. Ill let you know about the springs anyway maybe my friend might be interested in taking your set and do what i was going to do.

I have been checking in on their website from time to time in order to check in for new applications but it seems like we are still left in the dark. I would suggest some of you guys trying to reach them as well to show that we V36 sedan owners have a genuine intrest in their products. At the very least it might help to speed up production.

Have you bought suspension yet or are you still holding out for Tokico? If Tokico does not come out with suspension in the next couple months I will probably end up buying Tanabe Sustec Pro S-OC coilovers.

I picked up a set of eibach springs but I am trying to hold out for tokico for at least a couple months. If nothing is release for us I will end up selling the springs and picking up a set of coils as well.

seems strange that they haven't stepped up to the plate yet.
The 1st gen Tokicos were such hot sellers, you'd think they would be all over the V36 platform.

I've been waiting on them for about a year now, following-up along the way, they were supposed to have protos by the turn of this year and we're already near the half-mark.

These prices with free shipping are making it hard to hold out for the Tokicos.

^ Or, for roughly the same price, you can get the BC's that come with the tophats and extenders. No spring compressors needed and the dampers are fully adjustable.

I have to agree with the cost of some of these coilovers it is becoming hard to hold out. I will wait until I have my new wheels before I make my final choice as I already a set of Eibach springs.
