Nissan R32 Skyline GTS RWD (89-94) BC Racing ZX coilover kit 8/5 kg/mm
The BC Racing ZX coilover kit Skyline R32 (part number D-15-ZX) is a coilover kit adjustable in height and damping, also simply called a coilover, for the Nissan Skyline R32 GTS and GTS-t with rear-wheel drive (HCR32), Coupe and Sedan, model years 1989 to 1994.

Fitting and delivery
The ZX kit is made for the rear-wheel drive R32 GTS and replaces the original dampers and springs front and rear. We recommend having it fitted by an experienced mechanic and having the wheel alignment set as soon as the ride height is right. The delivery time is 1 to 2 weeks as long as the manufacturer has stock; if the kit is sold out at BC Racing, you can still order and we will get back to you with the expected delivery date.
The BC Racing ZX is 3-way adjustable: 20 clicks of low-speed compression, 12 clicks of high-speed compression and 30 clicks of rebound.
Why choose this ZX coilover kit Skyline R32?
When drifting and during long sessions, you want to tune slow body movements differently from fast impacts from kerbs and bumps. With the ZX you adjust low-speed and high-speed compression separately, in addition to the rebound. That way you tune the rear-wheel drive R32 GTS-t precisely to the track and to your driving style.
