About the BC Racing RM Series for the Subaru Legacy BL9/BP
The BC Racing RM Series Coilovers for the Subaru Legacy BL9/BP are very similar to the BR Series with one major difference: they feature inverted dampers for cars that use MacPherson strut suspension.
Inverted dampers provide several benefits for high performance driving, including:
- The weight of the damper tube and oil are attached to the chassis rather than the hubs, reducing the unsprung weight of the car
- A much larger inverted piston shaft that can handle higher lateral loads for longer periods of time without fatigue
- The larger diameter hollow tube of the damper is substantially stiffer than a thin diameter steel rod on conventional dampers, meaning a significant increase in lateral stiffness and a lot less deflection and bending during hard cornering
- The damper seals are located in the lower case, making them more protected from the elements and requiring less servicing as a result
- The damper fluid is moved away from major heat sources such as brakes, allowing the fluid to last much longer and reducing damper fatigue during extreme conditions
These coilovers are specifically designed as an entry level linear damping coilover for track use, hill climbs or tarmac rallies.
These coilovers are only available for MacPherson strut vehicles, as the design of a double A-arm suspension makes the inverted damper unnecessary.
In cases where the vehicle only uses MacPherson struts on the front (most cases), standard BR Series rear coilovers will be supplied.
