Hi everyone im about to fit my new coilovers to my 04 3.0rb wagon i was just wondering if anyone has any idea what height on the coilover i need to set to obtain a stock height in our cars then i can work my way down from there. im just trying to save myself abit fo time if someone has already been through this process. Ill be sure to upload some before and after pics once im done and let people know the specs i chose.

Cheers

Let me know how the Bc are. Keen on a set of these. Where abouts you get them from?

I don't think the BC's can get as high as stock height, but they can get close, prob lower than stock by 10-15mm at their maximum height.

JDM parts i think it was called 1300 delivered so far. Ill let you know how they go. Also EOi i will have my set of full bilsteings up for sale next week if anyone is keen send me a PM.

really that means at their lowest setting they will be about 140mm lower than standard thats ridiculous. they came set pretty well in te middle so i might give that a go.

Hey Kambo, I bought drndrn set of BC's and ended up raising them from his settings to save my tyres scraping on the wheel arches.

I've got them to about a finger width from the arches all round and the car sits well with no huge wheel arch gap at the front, anymore.

I'd need to check how many "threads up" that is on the coilovers, but if you fit them on the middle settings then it's easy enough to go up or down from there....just fiddly.

Also your wagon might sit different to a sedan.

How do you rate the handling of the BCs?

I picked up my car from OTR (Melbourne) yesterday, I had a set of 19 inch rays fitted and a set of BC coil overs as well. Im going for a good drive tomorrow. But overall Im pretty happy with them so far. I didnt lower it too stupid as I have an every day wagon. The shocks are set to 16. Its just nice for street as it still rides the bumps pretty nice without being too harsh. The car doesnt scrub which is all good.

i've had mine in for a few weeks now.

need to lower the front a touch more to suit the rear, have it just off the tire all round on 19's

did anyone else get these 'dampner ajustment extension bits' for the rears??

How do you find then now Tony?

Yep i received the extensions for mine and attached them my plan is to drill a small hole in the rear wagon trim so it pokes out and they can be adjusted without to much hassle. They all went in last night we left them on the middle height setting that they were sent to me on to start with. The front is now maybe 1cm off the tyre and the rear is almost 1cm below the tyre. I love it so far it looks tough as i cant comment and handling yet as i had a boot full of stuff last night rolling round and also i went to get a wheel alignment as its pulling to the left now before i start really testing it out. Personally from coming from modding a 1989 RS liberty i love this car everything you buy just fits on perfectly im used to having to cut grind modify to fit all my modifications its a dream.

Ill put some before and after pictures up later on today along with a few pictures of tips i found when putting them in.

Here are the before and after pictures guys i havent had any time to do proper ones but it gives you and idea. This as they factory sent them out i will probably be raising the rear by 1cm or so and dropping the front to make them even i think.

After

Hi looking to buy a set also...
im over the ride i have with lower springs with standard shocks, feels like the shock bottoms out at times.
Just wondering if you guys are happy with them ie: handling and comfort?

Hey Kambo

How are you finding the coilovers so far??

im looking at getting a set in the near future but im a little worried about the rear. Are they still supportive enough ( for lack of a better word) to tow a box trailer or a boot full of gear??


cheers
