Smile BC Racing Coilovers ????

Anybody had or have it on their GS300/400/430? I wanted to go coilovers for this year then add the UAS if possible next year.
I used to have this on my Maxima 2002 SE couple months ago. The ride was fairly descent but I only had it for a short time. I lost my last car in a bad accident on the highway.
Help anyone?

I had BC Racing BR series without extenders (I never received them), I had a sweet deal on a group buy.

slammed on 20"s


slammed on 18"s


sorry for the blurr


I raised it 1" all around with full stiffness

lol you and me might have the same mind. i had these for less then a year and im throwing some uas on them as we speak. for the money these are awsome coilovers. they've never gave me any problems but my rims did cause it was on the "too low" setting cause i love my car dumped. these coilovers are real good, i rode on them full stiff and they stayed stiff no leaks or anything. if you want to go uas they fit PERFECT. but only in the front. the rear will not work due to the design of the body. anymore questions feel free to ask on this thread.

I just bought my GS300 and need to lower it bad. I am a real estate agent and am going to use my car as a DD and show real estate with it. So that being said, I can't drop it to low and still need a soft ride. Will the BC's be a good choice for this?

UAS? What are you referring to? The small progressive springs you add to soften ride? Sorry if this is a dumb question.

I can tell you that it will be easier to adjust the dampering in the rear with the extenders.

I found the original thread on another board for the broken weld on the BC coilover. It was on a Mazdaspeed 3. It was blown and leaked all the fluid.out and was driving on it while waiting to work out a replacement with BC. He said he hit a bump/pothole or something in the middle of a curve in the freeway.

That pic keeps getting posted.

That guy had a Mazda 3, mid-turn he hit a BAG OF CONCRETE that was in the road and he broke his entire front suspension. I know because we are local to BCR and I saw the coil he sent back in and they told me the whole story.

So don't be afriad of the quality. We have many happy customers on the BC Racing coilovers.

If anyone has any questions, or wnats a good deal on a set, please feel free to ask.
