Bc Coil Overs And Rca's

[Twincam16seca]

Hi,

 

I have the Ae86 bc coilovers (these http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/BC-Racing-Coilovers-suit-TOYOTA-SPRINTER-AE86-/200751998308?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2ebdc06564#ht_2352wt_883)

 

I'm wondering if I need the roll centre adjusters I bought from T3? as the coilovers are the base adjustable type and I'm thinking if i set them at the lowest legal height I won't need the RCA's? Am I correct in thinking this?

 

Also the T3 RCA's don't fit onto the BC coilover spindles as the RCA's are designed off the original ae86 mount and apparently the BC's are a "generic" spindle so i suppose it could be the same as silvia's etc.

If I do need to use them i either need to get the rca's machined or buy/swap for some others (AJPS maybe).

 

any advice on this matter would be great.

That wont adjust your steering back to normal

 

Bolt them in, get the car on the ground with your desired ride height and look at how the lca's sit, Make your decision from there

That's strange how t3 RCA's don't fit. I have AE86 BC coilovers i run Cusco RCAs and they fit fine.

 

FWIW i recommend running an RCA if you've lowered your car at all.

ok thanks both of you,

destroyer i have these https://technotoytuning.com/toyota/ae86/roll-center-adjusters-ae86-corolla and they have the raised bit in the centre which is like and offset lobe thing. Whereas the cusco ones are flat much like the AJPS ones http://ajps.com.au/parts/rca_ncrca.php so they would fit. If the T3 rca's were flat in the centre they would fit but wouldn't be as strong apparently as they are completely alloy and don't have the steel locating collar/dowel thing.

Yeah Jacob T3 ones don't fit on my BC's

 

just grind off the bit that is in the way, thats what I did and what T3 said would be the easiest way to get them to fit.
