BC Racing coilover for GD3

[TypeR_DC5]

Just wondering does anyone heard of BC racing coilover for Jazz GD3?... I got quoted AUD1590 include delivery from Sydney to Brisbane... and was wondering should I go for it?

[Waternmo]

my frd has them in his car and he takes it to track, the quality of the shock is good! no leakin at all and all in good shape after few track days! but the rrp of those in china is around 1000AUD... a bit over priced in Aus, other wise, if u can get them down to 1200 or sumthin, then go for it!

[TypeR_DC5]

cool~~ I think the price is abit over too... thanks for sharing~~ :)

[magii]

ive used them on my car for a few years, havnt had any problems with them

x2, using now and love them. competitively priced. get a workshop to install and set it up for you.

Most of the guys I know (being Sam and Steve above inc) use BC's and they all say it's good as. I'll be getting a set too when I get enough moola.

OT: M@lew i think i saw you driving behind me on donny road tonight, u turned off at the honda dealership, do u have hid lights and fogs?

[M@lew]

Thanks for sharing guyz, I think I might give that a miss becoz I couldnt get a cheaper one..(as I suppose AUD1200 should be a reasonable price) However, yesterday my friend mentioned the brand is "JC project", I think it is japanese brand as it has a Japan website too. below is the Australia link at

http://www.jc-project.com.au/



from the Japan web, it only comes with Spec Pro version for Jazz, RRP 144,900yen, but Australia is selling AUD1600... not sure has anyone tried that before...? man~~ so many aftermarket suspension on the market nowadays, I remember back from the past there were only Tein, Cusco..etc... now they have K-sport, JC, BC,.... grrrrr

yes, reason begin most of the parts and coilovers are all made by 1 or 2 factorys and just rebrand and sell as a diff product... now most of the brands dont really hav to R&D, except some japanese brands.... so basically, coilovers around the same price will giv u similar quality and performance...

[TypeR_DC5]

That's true, that's why Im trying to get a reliable suspension under AUD1500 because I too new about the latest brands on the market and need you guyz to justify whether it is a reliable suspension. Too bad, I couldnt get a good deal for BC racing suspension. I hope JC project suspension is reliable too...

[yakuza]

JC-project is a good stuff, low profile Japanese brand.
Checkout their website....
Also key in JC-project at youtube, u will find their drift cars in Japan and China.

[TypeR_DC5]

They are just basicly same manufacture; different brand and stamp. I'd rather go for second hand cusco or Tein; gotta be careful when choosing too.

Finally items arrived!!! will get it installed on Wednesday~~ installation might cost AUD440 at Accurate Suspension 3808 2878. U guyz know any place cheaper? Quickfit cost AUD500. Price included wheel alignment and coil adjustment.

u can try to get quote from centrax (http://www.centraxauto.com.au/contactUs.htm) which locate at kessels rd, I got quote about installation of coilover as $330 2mths ago, cheers.

[kongfu]

By looking at the front strut . JC project one is pretty much old design.

[TypeR_DC5]

aiks, almost forgot about that shop, I bought the endless pad for my jazz about 4yrs ago. I will try to give them a buzz and see how it goes, with the the price of AUD320, does it include wheel alignment?

[dyljoy]

I am not sure about include or not, u can ask them

[TypeR_DC5]

cool... but thanks heaps.. at least there's a chance for me get a lower offer.. :) :) :)

[TypeR_DC5]

it would still be cheaper even after top up another AUD50 for wheel alignment... :)

[dyljoy]

sure! Good luck!

[040501912]

WOW !! intsallation 400???? i did mine on GE which is more complicated coz the suspension is under the window ...

only 300 with alignment and height adjusting .... :| i aught perth would be more expensive...

[dyljoy]

ya, should be somewhere cheaper

[TypeR_DC5]

got a quote from Centrax... Steven said AUD210 exclude wheel alignment as they dont have the align machine. well.. after top up AUD50 (at quickfit tyres).. I would say AUD260 the cheapest.. man~~~ why OZ charge so much?... anywhere I could get the wheel alignment done for AUD40?

btw, AUD500 quoted from quickfit was crazy~~~

[dyljoy]

Man, u can make booking at Sunnybank signature which next to Centrax, they charged me $45. (PH:33490933)

[040501912]

this is ausie u talking about everything is expensive :P unless u know a friend who can do it and give a cartoon.. booh yaah!

[dyljoy]

hey, guy, how's ur car going?
