Default BC review...

First off I would like to thank Pete over at BC Racing, great guy.

I have had and well drove and rode in vehicles with all sorts of set up's... Tein skunk2 Omni...etc...etc...
If you’re looking for an impressive suspension, I highly recommend the BC set up.

I will include the how to.
My review along with the reviews of others.

Pic's of suspension.










The install..
..front...
Remove fork bolts
17mm





Remove brake bracket bolts
10mm






Remove 14mm from fork damper.


Remove the 2 14mm nuts from the upper shock mount.


out with the old.





It makes it easer when putting on the 14mm nuts


Bolt up the brake lines


and work ur way back down...






Now the rear...
Remove the 2 14mm bolts from the LCA's


Now the 2 nuts from the sock tower.. 14mm


out




In with the new..
Work ur way back.

Car feels great..
Trying to get a seat dial for it,
all in all the car feels a lot stiffer than before.
First off went with the soft and man the ride is awesome…
Then I went up half way, you can feel the diff and its getting more aggressive..
Finally I dialed it to hard. I would not be using that for my daily ride. But at the track this is the one for it.
With it set to hard when shifting gears the suspension just works great…
Will give more review along the way with different settings and pictures of how the car sits.

I'm guessing a slammed pick will slam his blingy K header into the pavement

more info on this please? I can't search for it on HT because BC is too short for the search function.

Do they sell these in the marketplace? Or is there a website?
