Fitting BC Racing Coilovers Honda Stream 0206 gives you adjustable ride height and adjustable damping on the factory mounting points. Chassis code RN3. Default spring rates are front 6 kg/mm / rear 10 kg/mm. Ride height is set on the lower bracket rather than by compressing the spring. That keeps spring preload and ride height as two separate adjustments.

Spring rates and what is in the box This kit ships at 6 kg/mm front and 10 kg/mm rear. The stiffer rear is normal on this layout and helps the car rotate on turn-in instead of pushing wide. Rates are chosen by BC Racing per application, so they suit a fast road and occasional track car as supplied. If the car is built for something more specific, a track car or a car carrying a lot of aero, the rates can be changed without replacing the dampers. The kit covers all four corners and includes the dampers, springs, lower brackets, locking collars and the adjuster spanners. Top mounts depend on the configuration you pick from the table above. Anything that is worn on the car already, drop links, bushes, top mount bearings, is worth checking while the suspension is apart. Fitting and setting up BC Racing Coilovers Honda Stream 0206 Set the height first, settle the suspension by rolling the car, measure, then adjust. Only book the alignment once the ride height is final, because camber and toe both move as the car comes down. Middle of the range is the sensible starting point. Move a few clicks at a time and keep notes, because chasing damping settings from memory rarely ends well. The dampers are rebuildable. When they eventually need attention they can be stripped and revalved instead of binned, and spring rates can be changed later without replacing the whole kit. Worth reading if you are new to this: how a coilover works and why height and preload are separate adjustments. BC Racing Coilovers Honda Stream 0206 questions Will BC Racing Coilovers Honda Stream 0206 fit without modification? The kit is cut to the Honda Stream (02~06) damper and strut dimensions and uses the standard mounting points on the RN3 chassis. Check the listed fitting requirements for this application before installation. How low will the Honda Stream (02~06) go on these? Height is adjustable across the full range of the lower bracket. How low you can usefully run depends on your wheel and tyre size and how the car is used, so set it to suit how the car is actually used. What spring rates do BC Racing Coilovers Honda Stream 0206 come with? Front: 6 kg/mm / Rear: 10 kg/mm as standard. The springs are a standard ID, so rates can be changed later without replacing the dampers. Do I need an alignment afterwards? Yes. Camber and toe both move as the car comes down, so book the alignment once the ride height is set and the suspension has settled. Are these road legal? Adjustable suspension is legal for road use in the UK. Keep the ride height sensible, make sure nothing fouls at full lock or full compression, and tell your insurer the car has been modified.
