Product Details
BC Racing DS Series Coilovers for the 1969-1974 Datsun 240Z (S30) blend street-tuned ride quality with track-ready adjustability, giving you more body control than any OEM damper without the harshness of a pure race kit. Every kit is extensively tested on the 240Z S30 chassis and refined until it balances ride quality with performance — the reason 240Z coilovers from BC Racing are the best-selling adjustable kits in their segment worldwide.
DS Series kits pair a mono-tube damper with BC's proprietary digressive piston design — increased low-speed damping for flat corner entry, compliant high-speed response over expansion joints and potholes. The finished shock body is silver, visually distinct from the BR Series, and ride height is adjustable independent of spring preload. Where BC Racing separates itself is tuning philosophy: every off-the-shelf spring rate and damper setup is chosen to stay comfortable on daily roads while still delivering real performance at the track. If you want something different, Swift Springs, custom rates, and custom valving are all options at checkout — BC will match the valving of the dampers to whatever springs you pick, something most brands don't offer outside their flagship race lineup.
BC Racing has been manufacturing adjustable coilovers since 2004 and is one of the most popular coilover brands in the automotive tuning industry for a reason: competitive pricing, deep customization, proven reliability, and a fully rebuildable damper design that lasts years instead of seasons. These 240Z coilovers arrive tuned for the S30 chassis and ready to install — note that this is a weld-in kit and requires professional fabrication. Every kit ships with a 2-year manufacturer warranty, lifetime access to BC service parts (pistons, seals, shafts — no unit replacement required when it's time for a rebuild), and in-house tech support from both BC Racing and the Springrates team.
