Coilovers process

Postby Natty » Wed Nov 07, 2012 7:50 pm

Hey guys. In Brisbane and have a 2007 Lib GT (tuned by STi) and I'm thinking of putting some coil overs on. It seems BC coilovers are what everyone goes with.
Just wondering what's the best way to go about buying and installing them
Do you buy from eBay then get Fulcrum to install etc? What have other people done? I'm useless at installing things like that myself.. Keen to know the best way to go about it?
Thanks
Natty

Option1 Garage will sell and install them quite cheaply.

Note that it's a downgrade from your Bilsteins though.

Street to Track are the cheapest i've seen for BC BR coils. Can't comment on someone to install. Pedders is a big no-no.

In what way? And dont say 'every way'. I think the ride quality is fairly average as best with the stock billies and sti pinks.

Atleast the BC 's are adjustable, so u can tailor it to your needs!
Not a Subaru...... Something MUCH better

NOPE..... That's shit too. Bus anyone??

Unfortunately i didn't have blistiens to start with so i cant really compare between the 2, however im very happy with my BC's a heap of adjustability with height and damper and i think, for the price, they offer a very good ride, probably the best modification i've done to my liberty

+1 to this.
Can make BC's ride better than factory stuff - just need to play with them abit.
