The BC Racing BR-Series coilover suspension kit offers a wide range of adjustment, high performance, and consistent damping for both street and track use. The monotube design, combined with a large-capacity shock absorber, ensures consistent operation even under heavy stress.
The shock absorber uses a 46 mm piston in a 53 mm body, which increases oil volume and reduces the effect of temperature fluctuations on damping. A larger oil volume helps maintain consistent damping even under prolonged loads.

Features:
- 30-way adjustable damping (combined compression and rebound)
- Height adjustment via the lower mount – maintains full shock absorber travel
- Camber-adjustable aluminum pillowball top mounts (front axle)
- Monotube design for efficient heat management
- Nitrogen-pressurized shock absorbers for consistent damping
- Adjustable spring perch and corner weighting possible
- Bearing-mounted upper spring perch reduces friction and improves steering feel
- Dust boots to protect shock absorber seals
- Patented locking ring prevents height adjustment from loosening
Performance and adjustability
Height adjustment:
Ride height is adjusted from the lower mount of the shock absorber, allowing for a wide range of adjustment without affecting spring preload or the shock absorber's operating range.
Damping adjustment:
30-way adjustment allows for fine-tuning of the suspension for different uses. By adjusting the damping of the front and rear axles, driving behavior such as understeer and oversteer, grip, and weight transfer can be influenced.
Corner weighting:
The adjustable spring perch allows for balancing the car so that the load is optimally distributed to all wheels, improving grip, driving stability, and cornering speed.
