Default BC Racing BR Series Coilovers

Well guys if you have seen the other thread about the BC Racing coilovers for our cars then I have great news for everyone!

BC Racing as finished the production for the BR Series of coilovers today, and I am happily riding around on my new coilovers.

Just from today, I can tell you that the ride quality of these are amazing. The ride is great and the car looks great. They set my ride height to ~2" in the front and ~2.3" in the front and informed me I will be able to go another full inch of drop. adjusting the dampers is easy with the ***** at easy access points. I have yet to max out the coilovers and give them a test for myself. I may eventually max them out, but as a daily, wheres I'm at is fine. As far as, the ride quality, it's pretty smooth for coilovers and the handling is pretty good. Since it's only been one day that I've had them, I'll have to play with them a bit more, before I can test out the handling.

BC Racing informed me that they might possibly make upgraded series for our cars. If they do choose to do so, my car will be their test car once again.

As far as a release date to the public, I was not given any specific dates or an approximation. Everyone will just have to keep an eye out for them.

I'll have to post pics another day once I get a chance get a chance to take some.

As far as, the extreme drop kit goes, it was discussed before the R&D with me, but there is no word as to it coming out yet. Like I said, they do have the possibility of more kits for our cars coming out in the future.

And, yes, the fronts have the pillow ball mounts and an adjustable camber plate. And both front and rear have the adjustable damper **** on the top of each coilover. I also have the extender rods for the damper ***** to make for easier adjustment.

Lol. Thanks. It's the first gen HTC Evo, so it's pretty beat up. I'm just too lazy to go buy a new screen cover, kinda trying to just hold out till next year when my contract ends.

I don't know if this is a stupid question but do these coilovers allow you to adjust the rear camber?

There's no such thing as a stupid question. And, sadly no, these are the BR Series Coilovers, which means they are the basic of the 3 different series. The BR Series are currently the only Series that BC Racing has developed. Good news is that they do camber out a decent amount already in the rear while fully lowered, the front has some camber with those being adjustable. I'll take a few pics of the rear and front to try to show the camber of each.
