Apex can fully customise the kits with plush or stiffer dampers, shorter or longer travel/damper bodies and whatever springs you want. The BR looks to be very modular in design, which is the advantage of coilovers. In theory you can swap bottom and top mounts and make them fit any car I would think. Can't wait to get mine!

Im speaking to Eibach now about pricing.

1999wagon,

Yes, what are you doing with the car, just road or some track? If track then on what tyres, road tyres, road legal track tyres or alicks? Finally, if its mainly a road car then what are your local roads like and what sort of ride quality are you looking for?

The default 5/4kg.mm kit is the one you want. Theyre £699 with free carriage and rear damping extenders.

They come with camber adjustable front top mounts and rubber centreed rears. You can upgrade the rears to camber adjustable top mounts for an additional £62.

I can do a good package deal with Whiteline components.

I am looking at the possibility of a deal on Ebiach roll bars but am waiting for details of pricing from Eibach. I would have to place a large (100 bars per car model) order with Eibach to get the better price so we would need to generate significant demand on here to justify me placing such an order.

Or I can do a little on the normal Eibach prices

Hi Bren,

Is this deal still open? I have a 2006 WRX Wagon - I'm not sure which kit this means we need.

We're relatively happy with the standard ride quality (before everything started knocking); if anything, we might like to lower the car a little and possibly firm it up a little too.

Are any other parts required to fit these?

Regards,
Pete

Had my BC Coilovers fitted on Friday onto my wrx 300, went for the 5 + 4 with a bit of a worry they might be too hard - the wife suffers with back problems.
Bren did sugest that i had a set of 4 + 5 with longer travel but i decided to go with the 5 + 4. Thanks for taking your time to speak with me anyway Bren. I dont normally ignore advice, but have say so far i'm glad i went with the set we did, on softest setting at the mo. Yes they are harder than standard but not unduly so. car feels so much better

The GB finished some time ago. The BC Racing kit is £699, I can offer free extenders and UK carriage and can also work a package deal if you wnat any Whiteline products to go with the coilovers. The Whiteline alignment parts compliment the coilovers nicely.

I was suggesting 4/3kg.mm with longer travel and softer damping but its good to hear that you are happy. Its the end result that counts and if 5/4kg.mm suit your needs then thats all that matters

We are the distributer, the GB was hurting our dealers so we stopped it. Our prices are retail. We cannot discount the product. We can offer free extenders and carriage and can offer as package deal with Whiteline products.

As Bren mentioned, we cannot discount the BC Racing coilovers. This group buy has finished however Bren has decided to do a package deal, it is not a discount on BC coilovers, its a package discount.

We cannot discount the BC coilovers because we have many BC dealers, if we start discouting and undercutting our dealers as you can imagine it will cause alot of upset and there will be alot of unhappy people, it's unfair.

We are trying to do the right thing by everybody and many customers are happy with the current offer Bren has given.

Regards, Louise.

Doesn't seem too bad. Customised set, camber bolts and extenders and postage all for list price is not bad- once you add the extras in from a dealer it is probably about equal. The advantage of Apex is you get the customised kit quicker. Plus discounted whiteline bits.

We can probably do better by bending a dealer's arm somewhere, but only just. if you're lucky.

I'm waiting for the finance deal to see....Insurance due this coming month so holding my breath!

Sorry for the late reply.

The kits are £769 now. I cant price match but can do a deal with other components. Do you need any Whiteline parts, KSport brakes, pads etc?

What are you suing the car for, just road work or track as well? If road then what are your local driving roads like? Smooth with the usual random potholes or country roads with lots of twists, humps, bumps etc?

What sort of a ride are you looking for? Hard ride for superb handling on smooth surfaces, a good compromise between ride quality and performance for a daily driver or do you want to focus or ride quality?

A BR Series kit with 22mm adjustable rear ARB and alloy drop links should be £1046.25 including delivery. Ill do the package at £899 delivered.

£769?????? Why? Thank you for getting back to me, but I will have to order them from another supplier as your prices are £100 more expensive now.
