Default Vansteel Coilovers

I’ve been told my slow methodical methods are painful to watch!

SO HERE YA GO TED!!!!!!

Mocked up the install to check clearances. Just need to tidy up some hardware and they'll be ready to install.

I'll tell you my visual opinion--significantly more capable race application.

No cockpit (FX3) adjustment but better in every other way than the DRM coilovers I have.

If you're gonna not use the SRC shocks, the QA1 DA's are a great choice, especially for race track use.

I do not have QA1 DAs on a C4 but I put them on a 4Gen Camaro project last year and they were an excellent choice. They have a lot of valving bandwidth and that they are adjustable for both compression and rebound give you a lot of damping choices.

QA1 makes a great product.
