We won the last round of the European Drift Championship with our Skyline, equipped with Apex Gen 2 coilovers. It was fitted with a small block Chevy V8 at the beginning of the year and as such failed to compete in two rounds due to teething issues. Its run 4 of the 6 rounds and has come:

1st round Silverstone - DNF
2nd round Knockhill - 1st
3rd round Silverstone - DNF
4th round Santa Pod - 3rd
5th round - Silverstone - 1st
6th round - Poznan (Poland) 1st

2nd overall in the championship.

Not bad for just our second year of competition with this team

 

bren pm,ed you on some inverted coilovers.

 

sounds about right to me Bren

sort me something and i'll give you a bell 13th october (payday )

 

Ann had a Impreza coilover customer phone yesterday, Im assuming GC8 as hed just recieved them. He phoned to say that hed just recieved them, fitted them to his car and that he thinks theyre amazing and an excellent piece of kit. He was very impressed and said he was going to recommend them to all of his friends and thanked us for the fast service.

Thats all he phoned for, to say how happy he was

Please note that we can supply these coilovers for a huge range of vehicles, not just Imprezas so if any of your mates do want some then supply most probably isnt an issue

 

Bren, as soon as you get your GDB stock in, I'll take one for MY03 STI...

 

any confirmed dates yet mate ,when there expected

 

fitted mine at the weekend, and im really happy with them thought they might be bit to hard but they are fine and theres some bumpy roads near me
and id recommend these to anyone

 

GDB are due mid next week. Theyve all now sold

Siborg,

Glad you like them

 

can i get in on this?

 

Yep, GC8s are in stock and ready to go

 

save me the soft uns

ring you monday

 

Bren... GDB's all sold? I was hoping to take a set....

 

great mate

 

i'd been watching this waiting for the gdb's coming in,was going to buy a set too

 

Just tried to call and confirm if the GDB stock was all gone and as I thought, Apex weren't open today....

 

same position as above was waiting for them to arrive and payday to come!

 

Same waiting for the GDB sets!

 

Just called and they confirmed no GDB stock at the mo....

Next shipment is hopefully end of October or first week November so not too long.... Might be worth placing an order sooner rather than later tho to avoid this happening again....

 

Sorry guys, we work on a first come first served basis as its only fair and the entire shipment has presold.

 

Totally understandable Bren.... Can you confirm you've got sets available from the next batch (end of Oct)....?

 

I have another 96 sets of coilovers on order including 15 sets of GDB (2000-2007 excluding 05+ STi) and 4 sets of 2008 kits.

If theres interest in extending the offer then Ill do so and will increase the order quantity as theyre selling well.

I am, however, going to have to put the group buy price up.

Before you get out the flaming torches and pitchforks please bear in mind that Ive been throwing rear adjuster extenders AND rear camber adjustable top mounts into the kits for a while, both of which cost money. Not only that but the exchange rate has dropped from $2 the the £ to just 1.7. That put my buy price up by 17% This can be absorbed with retail prices but Im already giving 25% discount and that with the freebies is pushing the deal over the edge for us.

Historic exchange rate for UK £ vs US $

I just cant keep the price at £486, theres not sufficient margin left at that price. I can, however, do them for £549 if thats of interest? Still a bargain.

If anyones interested then let me know and Ill increase the current order size. If not then no problem, theyre selling well at retail anyway and due to some sexy new stuff going on with Apex and some of its manufacturers we really shouldnt be discounting the BC brand anymore

 

Its going to be late November, not October

 

hi Bren what would be the delivery on a set for an 05 sti (114.3 pcd)?
cheers Dave

 

i'm still interested in a set for mine(2004 sti).i just need to know what the ride height is like.mine's got prodrive spings on at the moment which are 20mm lower than standard sti's.i don't really want to go much lower than that for all the speed bumps we have around these parts.will these kits give a similar ride height? if so then you can put my name down for a set.
also,what spring rate would you recommend for road use on a new-age sti,5k/4k?

 

Bren if i phone and place an order for a set for a bug sti when will payment be taken from my card, when they are dispatched or as soon as i order??

 

DITO!

Cheers Jim

 

Ok guys, I think Ive sorted it to get a batch of upto 10 GDB/05+ STI kits here next week. Theyll fit either as its only the front bottom mounts that are different so I can build either GDB or STI 05+ from the base kit.

Theyre costsing me even more money to get the order speeded up and include the extra exchange parts to ensure flexibility so are defo £549.

I will confirm delivery date tommorrow when Ive heard back from the manufacturers

£17.63, late next week hopefully.

-20mm should be absolutely fine. Id defo recommend 5/4kg.mm for your car

As above, Im hoping to have them here next week, will confirm tommorrow.

Again, see above

 

thats great bren,you can put me down for a set for a 2004 sti.i'll be in touch regarding payment once the delivery date is confirmed

forgot to add,i'll go for the 5/4kg springs too.

 

me too although 2005 sti please,

you also have pm bren

 

have they come in yet mate sorry to be a pest just i booked the car in at powerstation (booked the day of work) for the alignment to be sorted for mid next week.
