BC Coilover Group Buy with Joe @ 2J Racing

Here's a place to talk about our proposed group buy with 2J Racing.

Several of us expressed interest in buying a set of coilovers, and it's time to see if we have seven or more members willing to commit.

I'm in for a "street setup". I'd like to preserve near-stock ride height, and I'm also interested in options for inverted body shocks and a remote reservoir setup. I don't know if this is even an option for our application, but I'd like to find out.

Assuming seven, what's our price for the standard build, each?

Who's in? :)

Ahhh good point raise the car to stock levels and set to soft.. Had not thought of the temp affecting the oil visc . Also brings up a good question If we need the oil changed can we have it done local or do we need to send back to you? Also what do they use for oil in these sweet units ?

The wait must be killing you. How much of a drop you going down? And whats your wheel and tire setup?

Not too bad or not as bad as I was waiting for the car.. at least I can go and look at them and reread the installation instructions and dig around in the Helms manual ... I have a set of Team Dynamic's Pro Race 1.2 15x8's on order waiting on those thinking I will go with a 225/24/15 so the tire diameter is only 1/2 inch less (lower to the ground) then I'll see where the car looks good with those and the daily driver tires stock 17's may have to adjust ride height on track days but it looks simple enough... Looking for maybe being able to get one finger of tire gab but will see might have to go taller as i don't want to look too slammed .. just a modest drop for looks then maybe more aggressive on the weekends. Like I said the tools that come with the BC coilovers look very well thought out and seem well built though I have not put them to the test yet :)

My only concern is how low till the rubbing starts. I want zero gap on my 205/45/17 or the most 1 finger gap.

I agree -- my car is just over 1" lower now and the 225s only rub slightly. Stock sizes won't rub at all.

This is with my test springs and almost no negative camber! On Friday I should be able to clear completely (if I can eek out at least a couple degrees negative camber). I'm drilling out the stock struts. What can go wrong? ;)

Coilovers are better all around for clearance -- you can dial in the negative camber and you get more inboard clearance (note my slight rubbing is the outboard side).
Hey McRib can you help a lazy guy out You are running 225/50/16 right ? or have i got you confused with someone else ? Thanks

All the orders have shipped! Took a while to get all the parts lined up, the correct rear springs (length, rate). At any rate, if anyone has any questions call the shop during your install.

1. REMEMBER TO SET THE VALVING TO FULL SOFT BEFORE INSTALLING, THEN GO +5 FRONT, +6 REAR
2. REAR RUBBER ISOLATOR GOES ON TOP OF REAR SPRING
3. DO NOT WORRY ABOUT THE OEM DAMPENER ON THE FRONT SHOCKS (ALUMINUM BOX). ITS NOT REQ
Thanks Joe and all "STOCK" sets are the same
