Hi all as a couple of members have BC coilovers fitted for sometime now just wondering how they perform ?

Cheers

I had them on my Evo VII a few years ago, I bought the best ones they made and they started knocking within a few months.

If you do a search on the MLR you'll see that they have been nothing but trouble for those that bought them.

I have KW's on my Vee and have had no problems yet.

I've got them on my vee and had no problems with them :approve:

No probelms with mine so far. Limited to a 30 mile drive though with a poorly engine, so I'm hardly a font of knowledge

Mine were on a 700bhp Evo VII so they were prob under a bit more stress but they did start knocking after only a few weeks.
These were when they were just released 3 years ago though so they may well of improved since then.

Have a read here http://www.lancerregister.com/showthrea ... +coilovers
There's even photos of new units snapping but as I've said they may have improved.

KW all day long, I considered these before finding out they don't fit ph2.

Buy cheap, buy twice... What we need is H&R to recommission Mossy's coil overs

I've been running these for 18 months now with no worries. I'm guessing at least 7K miles. The car has been through two MOT's and has no knocks or bangs. I can not imaging the car without this setup. Hopefully they continue to be reliable!

Just ordered a set of these along with a Pure Motorsport top mount and strut brace package. I'll provide feedback once fitted. The real test will come in October when I take my clio to the ring!

After some info if anyone can help please? I have a set of BC coilovers (as far as I know, these are only suitable for the phase 1). If I fit a phase 2 rear subframe will I have fitment issues?
