B&G Suspension Install

[wickedG20]

thats pretty expensive. even the teins which I thought were EXPENSIVE are cheaper, hehe But I guess its worth it. Your car handles much better now and it looks better too

$2500 CND...that's a lot of money...and it doesnt come with top pillowball mount???
the JIC is $1450 and comes with pillowball mount....but it's a race set up though.

That's actually not too bad since it's in Canadian dollars and in includes installation, alignment, and corner weighting.

My only reservation is that it doesn't come with real race springs. Real race springs like the Eibach ERS are ground flat top and bottom. You have a large selction of rates and lengths available with race springs.

Are those helper spings or tender springs (helper springs just keep the main springs seated under full droop)?

Hmm, so I bet you didn't measure the length of the shock bodies and shocks compared to the originals? That would have been a nice bit of info to have.

Also I'm with geo on this one, I was hoping they would give you liner springs in the kit. But it looks fine for a street setup. I can't wait to see how the perform.

I guess my next suspension setup will be the JIC's.

Oh yeah also guys don't forget Canadian dollars are worth a LOT less than your greenback. $1.00US ~= $1.50CDN.

Well you know what ..since I have pictures I can extrapolate the lengths off of the picture I took ..and since I have the original ..i can measure those too ..so with that said ..i'll have those dimensions for you ....once I get around to it.:o

[G-Forces]

I'd trust that about as much as a butt dyno.

[Mrcoilover]

Even with the Canada/US $conversion. How would you figure that out.
I'm not the best math student there is but I ain't stupid. You know how
education is these days. You never remember anything past 9th grade or something. Don't comment on the intelligence thing. I just want to know how many U.S. dollars that is. The drop is very tight.

2 questions.dprotech
1. how does it ride-harsh on bumps?
2. very bouncy?

Howdy Mr Coilover...

well I'm going to give it a few days to get a better overall feel for it. So far the ride is amazing. It swallows up road cracks easily but has a loud sound when going over Toronto's deep manhole covers (I do try to avoid them).

The best part about it is the handling and take off. The coilovers seem to do a really good job keeping the wheels planted on terra firma. I am taking corners with greater and greater confidence, the car just wants to be pushed.

I don't know if any of you ever felt this in the P11, that when you go around corners the rear wheels feels like it is steering with ya almost as if the car had 4 wheel steering. When the car was stock I felt that, then with the Eibach that seemed to dissappear and now its back...and I love it. I think the stock shock and Eibach combination are definitely mismatched.

Coilovers vs Eibach ? B&G definitely feels more forgiving and better travel.

[Mrcoilover]

interesting...... The way it sits in the pics are phenominal(sp). Thats just
how I would have it. Maybe have fender hide some of the tire. Good job. DUDE!:ylsuper

>>Yup cheaper than buying them at that place online, shipping and installing, not to mention alignment and corner weighting

, thats really not bad at all, B+G is a very good company also...these are 12 way adjustable, right???

>>Actually they are self adjusting depending on how you are driving. Don't really know how ..but thats what makes B&G Different.

btw looks very tight

>>Thanks
