    Higher, but I'm not sure where it maxes out. I order 18k regularly. There's also going to be the issue of how short you can get in what rate if you want to do short dampers. Just LMK what you're looking for and I'll see what I can do.

    Are shorter dampers a no cost option?

    Thanks for the update. Really good seeing pictures of the actual coil overs, and a car with them installed.

    Good deal! I'm curious as to how low they can go without the "extreme drop" option.

    extreme drop is really just a standardized custom spec. the pic posted was the equivalent of an extreme drop kit. without it, the car would max out .75-1" higher. it's really not as extreme as they'd you believe. i'm working with bc to see exactly how far we can go with it.

    Noon question I'm sure (still learning platforms and whatnot), but will these work on the Y34? I know the suspensions are similar

    In the market for some new coils. Still a 3 week turn around on these?

    Hmm.. The fronts are more what I'm after as I really don't want to hack up my stock struts/spindles. Going to have to check into what all needs to be done to the rears.

    i can not confirm compatability of the spindles. the weld in version will work.

    yes. bc racing na does not stock them yet so all orders come straight from taiwan. just as well though, they should be custom spec'd anyway imo.

    Hmm.. Not sure if I'm willing to take the chance of them not working.

    I know you're in Houston, if I order some can I send them to you for welding? I know there are places around here that can do it, but I'd feel more comfortable with someone who has experience with them.

    you'd be better off taking them to local shop, or driving to houston, so that the car can be on hand for fitting. where you cut will affect the ride height and i don't have a baseline measurement to work with.

    Hmm.. I knew you'd say that. I'm going to see if there are any local shops that can handle this for me. I know we have a few F50s in the area on coils, going to see if I can track them down. If not, I'll be making the drive down.

    What spring rates have you seen ordered? Any recommendations? Not looking to go too low just want a nice sporty but smooth ride.

    The only set I've received is the 14/12 posted. I have recently ordered another 14/12 with a shorter damper for a conservative static setup locally, as well as a 16/12 short damper setup for a customer from VSC. No feedback yet though. Honestly I use the same couple spec sets, depending on your goals, accross all platforms unless the customer requests otherwise. Haven't had any complaints yet.
