The BC Racing BR-Series coilover suspension kit offers a wide range of adjustment, consistent damping, and high performance for both street and track use. The monotube design and high-capacity shock absorber ensure 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. The larger oil volume helps maintain consistent damping even under prolonged loads.

Performance and Adjustability
Height Adjustment:
Ride height is adjusted from the lower mount of the shock absorber, allowing a wide range of adjustment without affecting spring preload or the shock absorber's operating range.
Damping Adjustment:
30-way adjustment allows fine-tuning of the suspension for various applications. By adjusting the damping of the front and rear axles, it is possible to influence driving behavior, such as understeer and oversteer, grip, and weight transfer.
Corner Weighting:
The adjustable spring perch allows the car to be balanced so that the load is optimally distributed to all wheels, improving grip, driving stability, and cornering speed.
