Are there any deals on these? The good reviews have grown on me and since spring is around the corner, these could be put to good use. Imo, I believe it's well worth the extra $300 to get the BC's rather than the Gr-2 H&r setup. How would these hold up in PA winters?

Man, just PM'd you directing you over to the classifieds. $600 shipped for BCs that have only been used a few months over this last summer. Apparently they look/perform mint. I'm not the seller, but what a damn good deal.

Just ordered my BC racing BR type coilovers through a local vendor in Canada. Hopefully they hold up better then my current K-sport coilovers. I'll post a review when I bring the car out of storage in a month. I paid $1150 total

I placed an order with JM Auto last week for the BR's. I have a question though: Any of you riding on the BCR's using an FSTB? I'm curious becaue I have a generic strut bar on right now (forget where it came from, but basically looks just like the ebay ones). As it is, it hits on the insulation under the hood, so I know there's absolutely no clearance.

I noticed that the coilovers have a plate that sits on top of the strut housing and I can only assume that the FSTB would sit on top of it and it's going to raise the height of the strut brace. Has anyone encountered this problem?

In anticipation, I have been looking at other brands of FSTB. I saw the Racingline FSTB which appears to sit lower. Any thoughts?

If any of you are using an FSTB with these coilovers, I'd really like to know which FSTB you are using, if you encountered any issues or had to make any modifications. TIA

The plate with the slot for the camber adjustment. Or does that go under the strut housing?

Makes sense. In looking at the photograph again, they have the mounting studs on them, so I guess they do go under. I guess it's a non-issue then, thanks!

That's what I thought you were talking about - glad that was sorted out quickly.
