Whelp. Trying to decide if I want to go with D2 RS coilover system or BC BR's. I'm getting about $1,100 back in tax returns, so I can afford either.
The D2 RS's seem to have more settings, have bodies that are aluminum and are electroplated to resist rust. They're also purple and black. (Would match the lug and caliper theme I've got going) http://www.ebay.com/itm/D2-RACING-RS-COILO...16e&vxp=mtr Then there are the BC BR's. http://www.ebay.com/itm/BC-Racing-BR-Coilo...619&vxp=mtr Anyone have insight on either of these two setups? I feel like Timmy said he has them on his car, but I can't remember. Whoops. Could a moderator move this to Suspension and handling? >.> sorry. -------------------- 1994 Toyota Celica GT-S 5S-FE 190k Miles. Project car 1992 Toyota Celica GT 5S-FE 170k Miles.

There are also these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/380473510196?ssPag...984.m1438.l2649
But it seems like they only drop 2 1/2 front and 2 in the rear. That's what my springs do...

That's what my springs do... you do know that coilovers are shorter in length than stock shock right?? so its really like 3 inch in front and 2.5 in rear or perhaps a tad bit more. look at the tein threads there is picture of stock rear vs tein rear length. those tanabe don't have dampening adjust-ability. and is pretty crappy considering a coilover should at least come with that at bare minimum. -------------------- Group buy to replicate Narrow E series transaxle parts
