looking for coilovers for my '10 gt. can't find them anywhere... specifically i'm looking for the BC racing coilovers for the car... but i don't see them on even their site now. couple months ago i found them in the "applications" list.

any leads on where i can get a set of coilovers for the mustang that are good?

 

That depends what you mean by "good." By good do you mean they lower a lot or do you mean they handle very well and offer the most adjustability. The only good reason to get coilovers over a spring and shock combo is that you need to be able to adjust ride height, corner weight, caster, camber, and shock rebound and jounce. If you are not a hardcore road racer, a good set of springs and shocks will do you just fine. Spend the extra $1000 you saved on headers or other mods.

If you have your heart set on coilovers, the Roush track pack coilovers are a good deal. For $1500 you get adjustable spherical bearing strut tops, adjustable ride height main and tender springs, and good non-adjustable shocks. Another good option is the KW variant one for $1300, but that doesn't get you the strut tops and the springs are progressive. However, If you're primarily looking to slam your car into the weeds the best bet is a set of Tein Flex. They ride extremely hard, but they are designed to lower over 2 inches and have very stiff rates and shortened/revised strut lengths to accomodate the extreme lowering.

i'm looking for adjustability... good coilovers... not **** just to lower the car.

my buddy got BC racing set for his subaru for right around a grand and they sound exactly what you're describing the roush trak pak to be.

i'm not a hardcore road racer, but i want to do it right. I have autocrossed the car, and i intend on doing so some more. Koni Yellows and a front sway bar were recommended to me... how do the koni's stack up to the Roush coilovers?

did a little google kung fu and found the coilovers i'm looking for

I've never heard of BC racing coilovers...

Koni Yellows are excellent shocks. I plan on switching to them as soon as the Roush shocks I am using now wear out. If you want Koni based coilovers, do a seach for Ground Control coilovers. They custom make coilovers for mustangs based on the Koni shocks and Eibach race springs.

I wouldn't upgrade the front swaybar only. If you're looking to do swaybars, do both as a matched set. Generally speaking, increasing the front swaybar alone increases understeer. The car understeers a lot in stock form and you definitely don't need more. Eibach and Roush make good matched front and rear sway bar sets.

I run 2-3 road racing events a year and an autocross once in a while. But the car is primarily my daily driver. I am using Roush springs and shocks and they work great and ride comfortably on the streets. They also perform very well at the track. I have a buddy that has Steeda coilovers and the full Steeda club racer suspension package. Despite the fact that he spent 3 times more on his suspension than I did I can keep up with him just fine at the track. The penalty of ride harshness and noise that comes with coilovers is not worth it to me to get a little more adjustability in shock settings and suspension geometry.

Just my 2 cents...

 

I think you should go to the S197 Handling Section and get some input from Sam Strano. He's been in business for years and holds national titles. Lots of experience and he knows Stangs. Over the past 3 years I've never heard of coilovers on an S197, considering the other great products available.
