have a few questions about the Meister R coilovers for an EP3
i am currently running BC Racing RM's, they started to knock very very very badly on both front sides, after i investigated it found that the nut behind the damping adjustment knob had worked loose on the bottom causing up and down play in the motion of travel. Done the job of taking it off cleaning it all up and tightening it back up which has stopped the knocking inside the cab, happy days.
BUT there still alot of play in the coilover, hard to explain but firstly i though the steering wrack was ****ed, but the movement i was feeling was caused by play in the coilover, sort of twisting and bending in the position where the damping travels in and out the body. Having spoken to BC Racing via email, they weren't any help and have now seemed to have got sick of my pestering and questions for advice and stopped replying to me, which is annoying.
now i want a new set of coilovers as the car is my daily so off road time for refurb of the suspension is not really an option. I like the BC's but now i am doubtful of buying another set the same after all these issues. I have read very good things about the MeisterR and they are of a very similar design, with the adjustable top mounts which i would like to have. The only question i have is how low do they go? my car is setup quite low for more of a stanced approach to styling and i don't want to lose any of the lows, i'll provide a few photos but basically do they go just as low as the BC racing RM's? there is a bit of reverse rake on the car at the moment but that will but sorted with some more lows on the front once i decide what suspension to go for.
thanks in advance, Cal
