Which coilovers?

[Dan34]

In my eyes requiring EP3 trackrod ends is a good thing for coilovers, they're much much cheaper to buy and the exact same job.

Do the yellowspeed require ep3 TRE'S?

No they don't. They are made specifically for the DC5.

Agree, that's why I'm paying £700 for coilovers. Do tegiwa do free delivery?

You'll be at the top end of the spectrum then.

£700 is entry level/ budget coilovers

 

[WalshDC5]

id say that's the price of decent street coilovers. Think pro sport are more of a budget coily. Either way, £700 is a fair amount of money and I'm not paying more than that 😅

your choice is quite limited then

Super helpful 😂 Gonna order some yellow speed ones tomorrow night from tegiwa. Thanks for the help guys

If your budget is £700 and you want a good all round package you'd be better off with Spoon Springs and a Bilstein B4 damper setup in my opinion.

 

[WalshDC5]

Did cross my mind but I'm wanting it for the aesthetics also. The car came with lowering springs on it but it's not quite got the drop I want on it

 

[Mebz]

Can you get ohlins dfv for the dc5?

Maybe over you're budget though.

I've currently got buddyclub rsd, I don't rate them

Spoon springs sit pretty much perfectly

 

[WalshDC5]

Maybe so, it's a pretty expensive job once you get into it with fitting, FRSU and spacers! Still need to get my standard back bumper on. I've been meaning to get it sprayed for months 😂

 

[RichA]

I'd say you're probably better off with just spoon springs for a road car.

Wheres the best place to buy the shocks? Just did a quick google but didn't bring anything up for dc5.

 

[WalshDC5]

Yellow speed coilys on the way 👌🏻

Assuming you're running yellowspeed coilovers, what sort of daily comfort and how much of a drop do they offer? I was going to wait on meister r's new release around xmas but would like something to replace my d2s in the facelift. Had meister r in my last dc5 many years ago and quite liked them.

Would be interested also. Had a search as well and could not find anything either.

They'll be EP3 fitment, like the coilovers you'll need EP3 track rod ends on the front and a couple of 1mm shims on the rear.

 

[Area Motorsport]

We've fitted Bilstein B4s to a few DC5s usually with Eibach Sportlines, as mentioned EP3 track rod ends (which is actually a good thing as they're half the price) and then a few shims in the rear and they're on, not anything to be concerned about. The ride is miles better than OEM even with a 30mm drop.
