And yes, definitely not going for the cheap stuff as I don't want to screw up my car. BC's are 1.3k as well. Now if only my computer at home wasn't broken.. I had a site with a quote for $1,350 delivered from Sydney :(

I had a wrx previous to my civic & euro.
Had many wrx members run BC coilovers.
IMO, they arent that good. They leak & become very noisey within the first year.
That was a known issue.
My mate had them in his wrx bought from wholesalesuspension penrith.
Returned them back within the month.

Whoa really? I've been hearing good stuff about them. Great, now I don't know what to do! Any more opinions/experience/advice guys?

Edit: Don't know why it quoted the previous people I quoted again o_o

thanks MR_LATE :wave:,, the grill, yes, hours of labour and re-coating, but worth it.
I felt the ride on the CU2 (stock set-up) was more on the comfort side. but i have not sat in the latest lancer/ jazz yet. they gave me a Honda City to use while I have the car in for servicing, that was one average ride.

The City is a Jazz in Sedan form, but the Jazz is more practical!

Sorry but is anyone on BC coils atm? I remember reading something about BC coils in dec last year but I can't remember now and searching 'BC coils' doesn't really help as 'bc' is only 2 letters. Sorry and thanks guys.

Edit: also, if you are, could you please let me know how you're finding them? How long you've had them for, any troubles, ride quality, what height you're at (front and rear) and anything else.
