    Default BC Racing Coilovers installed; now with after pics

    So I finally got everything adjusted the way I want and the ride height about right. I started a thread before I began the install and showed everything as soon I finished the initial install of the coilovers: http://forum.grrrr8.net/showthread.php?t=25391

    Since I pic whored it up so much with after pics, I figured I would start a new thread. So, since these threads are worthless unless there are pics... here ya go!! Any questions just shoot away.

    Sorry the car is filthy, gotta get it cleaned now!!




    The ride height is now 26.5" front and 26" rear

    Looks good, someday I will get pics of mine up. I am a little higher in stance. Did you end up setting up the rear adjuster through the trunk? I was hoping some one would post detail pics of this.

    Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall, torque is how far you take the wall with you.

    I found the easiest way for the hole in the trunk is to take just the top hat/cup whatever you want to call it for the top of the spring and put it up to the body and take some spray paint and spray where the strut will go. I didnt wanna drill from under the car so I just took the spray paint marking and put a pilot hole from under the car, then did the hole saw drilling from the top inside the trunk.
