Good coilovers for 02 WRX?
Does anyone have coil over recommendations for a 02 WRX?
I currently have KYB Excel G shocks with H&R lowered springs but its too bouncy over bumps, at stock height it was firm so I want to get it low without the bounce and get the firmness back. I looked at the Blitz ZZ-R coilovers for about $1.3k shipped, thats the same price as BC coilovers including shipping but the Blitz are made in Japan while the BC are made in Taiwan. Any others I should look into or advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance for any help. |
I guess I would be shot dead if I mention STD coilover :D
Standard come with 8kgmm spring all round, but u can order from 4 to 12. ~$1300 supplied, fitted and aligned, with local warranty. I dont get paid to do this btw. using the Perth-WRX mobile app |
I haven't heard of them before but it sounds like a good deal, unfortunately I'm not in Perth so the fitment would be done myself and an alignment at a tyre shop.
Do you have them in your car, if so how is the ride and have you had anything else to compare them to? Thanks again. |

Won't be until I'm back from Europe, but if there's no rush, keep it in mind. They currently have 12,000kms on them. using the Perth-WRX mobile app |

using the Perth-WRX mobile app[/QUOTE] Very keen |
Despite people's objection to BC, I've been running them for three or so years now, and apart from the fact that the roads in and around the area I live are horrendous, they have been one of the better handling mods I have done. I don't do track days anymore just the odd spirited drive up Gorge Road, and they're perfect for that. You're welcome to have a look at them some time.

I'd get BC before STD. I would probably go MCA though. Local, and good advice/customer service from those who put them together over east.

May I ask why the depart? using the Perth-WRX mobile app[/QUOTE] Considering either going back to stock and selling or perhaps shocks and springs for a softer ride. I don't think I will be heading to the track at all from now on so I'll let someone else reap the benefits while I drive on a puffy cloud. using the Perth-WRX mobile app |
