BC Racing BR Coilover Kit - Skoda Octavia 1Z (04-13) FWD, 54.5 mm strut and others, pillowball front top mounts
The BC Racing BR coilover kit, code H-04-BR-RA, fits the Skoda Octavia 1Z (04-13) FWD and the other cars listed below.
The BR Series is the starting point for coilovers at BC Racing: you set ride height and damping, and the car stays easy to drive on the road between track days.
BC tests each car on its own and refines the kit until it is balanced.
Kit type: RA
Front: aluminium top mounts with pillowball centres, camber adjustable where the car allows it. Rear: aluminium top mounts with rubber centres, or no top mounts.
The kit BC recommends for this car has a spring rate of front 6 / rear 6 kg/mm.
Construction and adjustment
- Monotube damper with a linear piston and damping curve.
- BC Racing uses a 46 mm piston in a 53 mm damper body to increase the oil volume and lower the peak oil temperature.
- Ride height adjustment independent of spring preload.
- 30 clicks of adjustment, with compression and rebound adjusted together.
- Custom spring rates or Swift springs on request, with valving matched to the springs you choose.
- Fully rebuildable.
Good to know
- On a small number of applications the solid pillowball top mounts at the front can transmit noise into the cabin, as light knocking. It is not a product fault: it happens when a solid top mount combines with the shell of certain cars.
For a different spring rate, tell us the car and how you use it. We are an authorised BC Racing importer. Contact us.
