BC Racing V1 Series Coilovers

The BC Racing V1 Series coilovers use a large 44mm diameter piston in a 50mm diameter damper body to maximise oil capacity. As the damper operates, the oil inside heats up — the viscosity of oil changes with temperature, which can lead to changes in the damping characteristics of the unit. BC Racing use a very high quality oil throughout their range and go a step further by building the V1 with a 50mm diameter body. This increases oil capacity, reduces the peak temperature reached during use, and significantly improves damper performance and consistency as a result.

30-Way Damping Adjustment

A single adjuster controls both compression and rebound simultaneously across 30 positions, allowing the driver to set ride stiffness from a comfortable daily setting through to a firmer arrangement for track or spirited road use.

Ride Height Independent of Spring Preload

Ride height is adjusted via the bottom mount, not the spring platform — full damper travel is retained at any ride height. The tapered locking collar prevents the height setting from working loose under vibration.

The VN configuration is supplied without front top mounts — designed to reuse the OEM front top mount — and with aluminium rear top mounts with rubber centres or no rear top mounts depending on the application.
