That price is hard to beat and this is a great vendor who can be trusted. I've gotten the majority of my parts from him.

Thanks Matt, always my goal to have the best price and my customer service skillz are through the roof compared to most company's I have dealt with and hear horror stories about and I have a full time job.

I will extend this deadline, if folks don't want the rear extenders, we can add an additional price for no extenders. $880 shipped without the rear extenders.

Forgive me for not knowing, but what are rear extenders?

They allow you to change dampening settings for rear shocks inside cabin or trunk vs having to take wheel off to make adjustments.

Gonna give this a bump! I will also link this in the Coupe forum to generate more interest - does this GB also apply to the BC set for the coupes?

So far posting over at NissanClub has worked out fairly well but I'll post it in 07+ forum as well. Hopefully that will bring a few more over.

I would love to get on this deal......

two questions:

1.Will the rear extenders work on the Altima Coupes?
2.Will these be the newly designed 20% less valved models? (this option is very important to me)

1.99% sure and will double check on the 1%.
2. I will have to call BC for that information as no one has ever asked.

Can I buy front's only?
Can I get the "20% less valved" version?
Can I get shorter springs with higher spring rates that will let me slam my car?


Sorry for all the questions but I already have BC and I'm very disappointed with how low they can go. I have a couple ideas that may make this work and I know a couple of people are interested in the above questions I asked. Could you shoot me a pm?

Do they really not go that low?
Does the d2 racing coilovers go lower than the bc racing?

They definitely go low. Lower than both Tein setups, not as low as K sports, and I can't speak for D2's. These are an excellent quality and performance coilover. Certainly not solely intended for looks.

Kanejuice most people would consider it low enough for their liking. They ARE "low" without a doubt, just not low enough for me and I heard they were making some that were 20% less valved which I'm assuming will let you go even lower.

The quality is really good though and the car handles great like Drew said. And maybe they aren't meant for looks. Maybe I should have looked into function and form, if they even have coilovers for our cars

I ever so barely tuck tires on stock wheel/tire combo when coils are maxed out. I haven't measured from the ground up though.

Alright folks, got some answers from B.C.

Yes the kits are 20% less valved for a more comfortable ride.

NO, there are no optional springs or spring rates.

Hopefully this will get the rest of the people we need on board to get this train out of the station.

Would this mean the drop would be lower?

That's what I thought too, but it only affects stiffness and ride comfort

Lol Michael I can't do it. I currently have BC's actually. I was going to buy these and sell my old if they could go lower but since they can't, I'm out =/ I can ask a local though. But I think he's looking towards used ones..
