Description
Toyota AE86 Corolla without spindle (83-87) BC Racing ZX coilover kit 6/4.5 kg/mm
The BC Racing ZX coilover kit AE86 (part number C-211-ZX) is a coilover kit adjustable in height and damping, also simply called a coilover, for the rear-wheel drive Toyota Corolla AE86, model years 1983 to 1987, in the version without spindle (W/O SPINDLE). The spring rate is 6 kg/mm front and 4.5 kg/mm rear.
For drift competitions, competitive track work and long sessions, BC Racing has the ZX series. It brings together the upright monotube of the DS and the external reservoir of the ER and adds a third adjustment: you set low-speed and high-speed compression independently of each other, alongside the rebound.
This ZX is made for the AE86 without spindle (W/O SPINDLE). BC Racing also supplies the AE86 kits with spindle; choose the version that matches your car and contact us if you are in doubt.

We recommend having it fitted by an experienced mechanic, and after setting the ride height, have the wheel alignment measured and set.

The BC Racing C-211-ZX is the 3-way adjustable coilover kit with external reservoir for the Toyota Corolla AE86 without spindle, with 6/4.5 kg/mm springs.
Why choose this ZX coilover kit AE86?
With three separate adjustments per damper you tune the AE86 in a very targeted way: fast movements via the high-speed compression, slow body movements via the low-speed compression and the extension via the rebound. That makes the ZX suitable for drivers who use their AE86 for drift or competitive track work and want to fine-tune every session.
