Description
Toyota ZN8 GR86 (22+) BC Racing ER coilover kit 5/5 kg/mm
The BC Racing ER coilover kit GR86 (part number C-185-ER) is a coilover kit adjustable in height and damping, also simply called a coilover, for the Toyota GR86 (ZN8), from model year 2022. The spring rate is 5 kg/mm front and 5 kg/mm rear.
The ER series is a 2-way adjustable coilover kit with external reservoir, made for serious track and competition use. You set compression and rebound separately, each in 30 clicks. This lets you tune the bump and rebound damping of the GR86 separately to the circuit and your tyres.
The monotube dampers have two pistons and a digressive characteristic, and BC Racing fills them with fully synthetic oil with a very high viscosity index. Camber plates are fitted on suitable kits, rubber top mounts are optional. The kit is intended for GR86 drivers who are on track often and seriously.

Fitting and delivery
The kit is vehicle-specific and replaces the original dampers and springs. We recommend having it fitted by an experienced mechanic. After setting the ride height, have the alignment measured again; with a 2-way kit it pays to then adjust the damping step by step on a test day. The delivery time is 1 to 2 weeks as long as the manufacturer has stock. If the kit is not immediately available from BC Racing, you can still order it and we will keep you informed.
The BC Racing ER kit C-185-ER for the Toyota GR86 has 30 clicks of compression and 30 clicks of rebound, adjustable independently of each other.
Why choose this ER coilover kit GR86?
With a kit that has combined adjustment, you always change compression and rebound together. With the ER you set them separately, so you can tune the GR86 more precisely to a circuit, a type of tyre or your driving style. The external reservoir and the synthetic oil make the kit suitable for serious track work.
