FK highsports good for low driving?

[Adam.]

So I'm finally getting coilover's and highsports seem like a good price for a bolt in coilover. I know they don't have adjustable shocks but are they good for driving low?

[Adam.]

Anybody?

I believe they are. From your sig I take it you re gonna put them on an E30..my buddy has them on a MkV GTi and they run great....and he's fully slammed on Boston, MA roads which are fucked up to say the least....

[Adam.]

Yeah there going on an E30, I've heard really mixed opinions about them so I figured I'd ask the experts. Some people say they ride bouncy, some say they ride smooth. Some say the quality is good and others have blown shocks and had springs break etc..

I've got them on my e46, one notch away from all the way down and they are super bouncy, however I like it.

[Adam.]

Ah ok, trying to decide between FK and BC.

I was searching forums and I found a seller that has a bc br kit just for e30s. I messaged them and they said it's a direct bolt in system in the front. 999 shipped. Email is sales@brentuning.com Might help you decide on bcs

[Adam.]

I live in the UK so by the time I pay shipping and import tax etc.. It wont be cheap by the time it gets to my door

Yea that changes everything haha Plus the more I read into the BCs I'm pretty sure you have to weld the fronts in and that seems like a pain. I'm thinking about GCs for how simple they are but it's more money than I thought about spending. I was looking at the high sports too but I'd like dampening adjustability.

[Adam.]

Yeah welding them is a pain but worth it for better ride I guess. I like the way you don't loose shock travel + have adjustable damping on the BC's. Think ima go with them even if I have to pay someone to weld them

[dirty_thirty]

If you can send me pics when you get them. I probably won't buy anything for a bit and if the BCs are really good I might save some cash and go that way. I have BCs in my Subaru and they are really nice but I hear they are different when you slam them.

adam get onto barrysmotorsport, they do the bcs for €8-850. theyll also weld the struts for you for an extra 50 quid. plus theyre in cork so not too far away from you.
