BC Racing ZR Series Coilover System (1992 - 2001 Subaru Impreza WRX - GC6 / GC8) - F-01-ZR
Top-Tier Suspension Control for the Classic GC WRX
Bring modern race-ready performance to your classic 1992 - 2001 Subaru Impreza WRX (GC6 / GC8) with the BC Racing ZR Series Coilover System - the most adjustable and competition-focused suspension BC Racing offers. Designed for serious drivers who demand more tuning freedom than the ER or HM Series can provide, the ZR Series features three-way damping control including 15-click low-speed compression, 12-click high-speed compression, and 30-click rebound adjustment. Whether you're building a rally-inspired street car or a fully prepped track GC8, the ZR Series gives you unmatched fine-tuning capability.
McPherson models like the GC chassis come standard with inverted mono-tube dampers for greater rigidity, reduced unsprung weight, and improved performance consistency. Each damper connects to external remote reservoirs via steel-braided lines, maximizing oil capacity and thermal stability during continuous high-load events. Swift Springs come standard, and the system offers full ride height adjustability independent of preload, preserving proper shock travel even at lowered heights.

- Three-way independent damping with low-speed compression, high-speed compression, and rebound adjusters.
- Inverted mono-tube damper design ideal for McPherson-style GC6/GC8 suspension layouts.
