How was it? I am also considering BC Racing coilover and I just want to have some feedback if I used these coilover's for daily driving rather than acquiring lowering springs like eibach or espelir? I would also want to try my Yaris Sedan on occasional track days.

I really like the D2's. Tho they are my first set of coils I've had on a car of my own. With there adjustable height and dampening I can't complain

I don't recall that metal spacer going there, Pretty sure it goes directly underneath the top nut so you can tighten it with a regular wrench with everything assembled on a car.

LUK Schaffer rotors were well priced and have been performing well so far after about 6 months of use. Installed them on my Toyota Yaris and they work just fine, definitely recommend.

SO, WHAT ARE THE BEST LESS THAN 1K COILOVERS ?
I think I bent my left front strut from a severe turn last week....I can call the car Irene or Ilene now.

If afraid to comment on best, I drive all street, but typically drive it like I stole it, and occasionally carry some weight. Haven't towed with it yet, but if I do, will be light stuff, less than 500 pounds.

Been running Megan's for 4 years now. Autocross every month and a couple track day events a year. Still running strong.

I've even stop using the car on daily basis so I can get tomthe track with my 4 coilovers intact ��
