Default Raceland coilovers

Has anyone used or known someone that has used Raceland coil overs? Right now I'm riding on TEIN S-Tech lowering springs and I've been looking for some decent coils, and my buddy told me to go raceland. I just wanted to see if anyone else has used them?

I am on racelands.... they arent the greatest... hence the price. If I were you I would just go with BC or something more quality. Racelands get the job done none the less, but I have issues with them quite often. And when I first installed them, I was on s-tech's before and they maybe lowered my car an inch more if even that... so, i had to basically make my suspension set up custom, with my racelands. my car is really low now, but Ive had to put a lot of work into making that possible with racelands...

diaster had them. after driving for what was it...couple weeks? he got back pains from all the bumpiness. Soon after switched back to springs.

racelands have to dampening adjustment meaning you can't adjust it to have a comfy ride

I loved my Racelands. Like Kayla said, you have to make adjustments to them to really get a good drop out of them (shorter springs, etc.) My suggestion would be save your money and buy BCs. Since I've made the switch, my ride has been much smoother. Not to mention, BCs come with adjustable tophats - Racelands utilizes your stock ones. If you don't drive your car much and aren't looking for a ton of camber up front or a serious drop then by all means go for Raceland!

Listen, either way, for the money, Shannon and Kayla are sittin' frickin tight. Some of the cleanest tC2 looks I've seen by those two. Very similar styles, except Kayla threw in some camber as of late. Me likey. Shannon, where's your camber?

Thank you very much! I have camber bolts up front and natural camber in the rear. With the new wheel setup, there will be much more camber (waiting on rear camber arms and adjustable tophats from BC), don't you worry!

I suppose I should post my babe in this thread!
The car has come a LONG way since I bought it back in October 2012.
These pics are from h2oi (which can't come fast enough)
Car will be on a much more aggressive set up this year and I CANT WAIT :D

No problem ladies. Props is given where props is deserved.

Kayla, I haven't seen you around much lately. What's up with that!? And what's with up the DFW lately? Like 40 degrees and sh.t?? Been to any cars and coffee lately either?

loll budget builds and free mods for the win.
Vinyl removal from a-pillars? free.
Grabbed a razor blade from the work bench of my garage and got to work.

One of my favorite, most noticeable changes to my car.

My tC1 was right and I refused to buy any other color! I do looooove the cement though - such a unique color.

The tiffany blue definitely brings attention to the car.

My last car brought enough of the wrong attention to me so I went with grey haha. The cement is nice but that blue would look good with some lime green rims (for subaru). I'm gonna be investing in plasti dip of all sorts to see how different colors look haha.

@criminaltc -- I have been so busy lately.. Switching jobs, and much more. I haven't been to many meets lately because I have a lot of people hating on my car intensely. I've taken a step back from going to meets for a little while. :/

I plan on changing my set up soon, and when I do I'll be back out.

Thanks for all the positive comments!! I agree with Shannon 100% about cheaper innovative mods - sometimes it may take money, but sometimes it just takes some thinking ;)
