BC Coilovers Info & Unboxing (03-08 FX35/FX45)

I'm not as familiar with the 45 as the 35, but I think it's similar in that the valve train is non adjustable, it needs to be adjusted with varying the actual lifters (or the shims on 45?)which require cam removal each time... a mediocre job might just suffer from valve tap, maybe premature wear from improper clearances set there? I'm not too sure really & I wouldn't be all that eager to find out the hard way either... I'd at least research it a bit I guess
 
man i want BC's sooo badddd!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



after i get the fx running... this will be next on my list :)
 
Just some comparison shots, the underbody is taking a beating. The belly pan is actually the lowest part on our cars.

I scraped that front under lip the other day on a curb. It was a weird sensation.

I know what you mean, my belly pan is actually cracked and my wife hates driving the car now. This will all change when I throw on some 22's.
 
Jeff you need to invest on a aftermarket metal belly pan.. That plastic one will be soon gone!!


Love the dropped tho!!

Pricing here in the netherlands is about 3K USD for the Front kit

And an additional 1K USD for the rear......your using the hydrolic system from teh front.

Pricing is without labor.

Too Anyone.......don't dare try to compare this with an Airride Suspension :cool:
 
fxlr8, logan, lets see some pics. Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
With my eibachs I hit the front lip thing on curbs and cant hope some curbs (if i need to, that is) and it scrapes on some flat-to-hill roads......
I want to be lower :)
 
Working on some new shots.....been wrestling rear camber and wheel spacing issues, finding "perfect fitment" is a PITA. My shop has a camber kit put togther that will pull components from three separate parts groups to resolve my rear camber issues but I still need to thin down the inner well lips. The roll worked pretty well but the goal is better fitment with zero rub.

translation: Getting test fitted for a wide body. Waiting for 22" HREs to arrive. Twin turbo almost completed. Stop blowing up my spot


this explain logan's lack of pics :)
 
Hah, you so funny P =) Nah, just rubbing pennies together trying to decide if its legit to spend $450.00 to have fully adjustable rear camber......this particular shop is very good but they are not cheap. If anyone is interested..... [FONT=Verdana, Helvetica, Arial]www.speedwaremotorsports.com the range of cars they work on is pretty amazing, always something cool to look at on one of the lifts......[/FONT]

4 G's for that, you could put airbags on it for less $$$
