Today I received the BC coilovers V1...the same as yours... they put a big smile on my face got to say :lol:

... but I have a question for you... Does your BC's touching the CV joint? Becouse mine do and I still have 5 centimeters of thread left on them and I allready removed the black and one of the red locking collars... I don't know if I don't know how to adjust them correctly or is this the full potential of lowering them.... Hope you understood. Thanks

Hmm... I think I understood.

So... the height is adjusted on the body of the suspension. The body goes up or goes down in the black piece holding the stub axle. The collar you have when you remove the other two, goes up and stop when the spring of coilover is trapped (without forcing it) when the car is with the wheel on the air.

I really hope you understand what I mean. If you have any question, tell me. I'll try help you

Ok

Here is ok

**Posted:** Fri Jun 14, 2013 10:09 pm

So I have them installed and positioned just like this (on the picture) ... Did I lowered it correctly?... and is this the full potential of lowering them ?

I hope the picture is helpfull

HughieW told me this is it... if I want to lowered it more I need to buy new shock and spring.

**Posted:** Fri Jun 14, 2013 10:21 pm

Yes... That's it!

But... give 1 or 2mm of space between the coilover and the cv joint because, can spoil the CV Joint

Look...

**Posted:** Fri Jun 14, 2013 10:30 pm

Ohh... OK thanks mate

...appreciate the help... I was afraid I was doing it wrong :P ... Thank you again

where did you get TUV certificate for BC's?

**Posted:** Mon Jun 17, 2013 10:18 pm

Hmm.. I think TUV Certificate comes on the box of BC's but, here in Portugal, it's illegal drive with lowered suspensions (springs, coilovers and so on...)

**Posted:** Tue Jun 18, 2013 7:20 pm

I didn't get it in the box, and some people say it doesn't exist for the BC's... it's just strange

**Posted:** Tue Jun 18, 2013 7:50 pm

Hmm... Yeah, it's strange! :roll:

I've seen on my BC Racing documents and don't have the TÜV Certificate too...

**Posted:** Wed Jun 19, 2013 9:37 pm

I will contact them and see what they will tell me

**Posted:** Wed Jun 19, 2013 9:47 pm

Okay!

**Posted:** Tue Jul 02, 2013 3:37 pm

Well... One new video of my mazda on "Serra da Arrábida Touge" 8-)

Unfortunately, I don't know the road, so, in some corners, I could be much fast, but... I'll go some more times to Serra da Arrábida to train

Here are the vídeo...

Hope you like

**Posted:** Tue Jul 09, 2013 7:55 am

Nice touge !
You have a nice sound for your exhaust, it is the OEM exhaust ?

**Posted:** Tue Jul 09, 2013 8:34 pm

I have a 2" straight pipe from oem exhaust manifold to oem muffler

And thanks

**Posted:** Wed Jul 10, 2013 10:13 am

Ok ! I need a new one, mine is broken and I think to buy an oem, and maybe later a straight pipe too if I find one

Thanks

**Posted:** Mon Aug 12, 2013 12:18 pm

Nice ride ! I've had this at my laptop wallpaper since bought my own BA :thumbleft:

**Posted:** Mon Aug 19, 2013 10:55 pm

Thanks Haanpää

hi . gr8 car .
But when are those xxr comeing ?
I had the same ideea to buy , but wanna see how they look on yours

**Posted:** Thu Aug 29, 2013 7:06 pm

Maybe don't buy the XXR's but other race wheels like Enkey RPF1, Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2, ...
But, first of all it's the engine Swap

I have other 323F... a 323F GT 2.0 V6 147hp but the engine has some problems and so, I'm thinking to import a KLZE and do the complete swap!

Well... let's see...

**Posted:** Thu Aug 29, 2013 8:54 pm

well , yeah , but the concave wheel type just looks amazing :drunken:

**Posted:** Thu Aug 29, 2013 9:40 pm

Yeah... I know, but here in Portugal, the people of Stanced cars like VAGs as Seat Ibiza, VW Golf and etc, use that wheels and as I don't want my car for stance, I prefer some light weight wheels with good offset and width to make my car much better on corners

But yes... I like the XXR 527 wheels... on JAP cars and not on VAGs :roll:

**Posted:** Fri Aug 30, 2013 5:52 am

RPF1s would be amazing
