BC Racing ZX Series — Three-Axis Adjustability for Street and Track

The BC Racing ZX Series takes the three-axis, 3-way damper architecture of the race-spec ZR Series and valves it, out of the box, for drivers who split their time between the street and the track. That means you get race-grade adjustability, independent control over rebound and both compression ranges, without the harshness a full race setup brings to daily driving. Each application is extensively tested per chassis, and True Rear configurations are available on applicable divorced-rear platforms. It is the coilover for someone who wants serious tuning range and a car that is still enjoyable on the road.

Race-Grade Three-Axis Adjustability, Tuned for the Street

The ZX Series carries over the three-axis, 3-way damper design of the race-spec ZR Series, giving you independent control across rebound and both the low-speed and high-speed compression ranges. What sets it apart is the valving: it is set from the factory for drivers who move between street and track, so you get the depth of adjustment a race coilover offers without the constant harshness on the road. You can soften the car for a daily commute and firm it up for a track day using the same hardware. It is a genuine dual-purpose setup rather than a compromise in either direction.

Extensively Tested, with True Rear Options

Every ZX Series application is extensively tested per chassis, so the setup arrives dialed in for your specific car rather than adapted from a generic template. On applicable divorced-rear platforms, the ZX Series is available with True Rear configurations, which replace the factory separate spring and shock with a full rear coilover for unified height and damping control at the back of the car. That combination of chassis-specific testing and platform-appropriate hardware is what lets the ZX Series deliver on both the street and the track. Enter your vehicle on the listing to see the exact configuration offered for it.

Fitment, Support, and the Springrates Guarantee

The ZX Series is offered across a wide range of platforms, and each kit is built specifically for its application, so enter your vehicle on the listing to confirm the correct fitment and any True Rear option. Every BC Racing coilover is a fully rebuildable monotube design backed by a two-year warranty handled through BC Racing North America, and custom spring rates are available at no extra cost with Swift Spring upgrades offered on request.

FAQs

What makes the BC Racing ZX Series different?

The ZX Series shares the three-axis, 3-way damper architecture of the race-spec ZR Series but is valved out of the box for drivers who split time between street and track. That gives you race-grade, independent adjustment over rebound and both compression ranges without ZR-level harshness on the road. Each application is extensively tested per chassis, and True Rear configurations are available on applicable divorced-rear platforms.

How does the ZX Series compare to the ZR Series?

The ZX Series and the race-spec ZR Series use the same three-axis, 3-way damper design, so the adjustability is closely related. The difference is in the valving: the ZR Series is tuned for dedicated race use, while the ZX Series is set from the factory for the street-and-track driver, keeping the car livable day to day. Choose the ZX Series when you want race-grade tuning range in a coilover you can also drive on the road.

Is the ZX Series streetable or track-only?

The ZX Series is built specifically to do both. Its three-axis adjustability comes valved for drivers who move between the street and the track, so it delivers serious control at speed without punishing you on the daily commute. It is the right choice when you refuse to pick between a street coilover and a track coilover.

What vehicles is the ZX Series available for?

The ZX Series is available across a wide range of platforms, with each application extensively tested per chassis and True Rear configurations offered on applicable divorced-rear cars. The best way to confirm availability and configuration for your car is to enter your vehicle on the listing.

How much damping adjustment does the ZX Series offer, and how low does it go?

The ZX Series uses the three-axis, 3-way damper design of the ZR Series, giving you independent adjustment across rebound and both the low-speed and high-speed compression ranges. Fully threaded shock bodies set ride height separately from spring preload, so you keep suspension travel while dialing in your stance. Exact drop varies by chassis, so check the listing for your vehicle.

Can I order custom spring rates or Swift Springs on the ZX Series?

Yes. BC Racing builds ZX Series kits with custom spring rates at no additional cost, so you can match the setup to a street-and-track balance. Swift Spring upgrades are also available for drivers who want the premium spring option.

Are ZX Series coilovers rebuildable, and what warranty do they include?

Every ZX Series coilover uses a fully rebuildable monotube design, so the units can be serviced and refreshed rather than replaced. They are backed by a two-year warranty handled through BC Racing North America.
