COILOVERS DS / BC RACING / TOYOTA ALPHARD

BC Racing DS coilovers for Toyota Alphard

The BC Racing DS coilovers for the Toyota Alphard are new high-performance suspension units designed to improve handling, driving precision and body control. Developed from BC Racing’s motorsport experience, the DS range is aimed at drivers seeking an effective balance between comfort, sportiness and personalised settings.

Purpose of the part

A coilover kit replaces the original dampers and springs to allow precise ride-height and damping-firmness adjustment. On the Toyota Alphard, these suspension units improve control of roll, pitch, weight transfer and body movement, particularly during braking, acceleration and changes of load.

DS technology includes a double-acting digressive valve, increasing low-speed damping for better chassis control while retaining a stable, comfortable response at higher speed.

Symptoms or consequences of worn or unsuitable suspension

• Less precise handling and a floating sensation.
• Excessive body roll in corners and lack of stability during changes in load.
• Potentially longer braking distances due to poor control of vehicle mass.
• Uneven tyre wear.
• Loss of comfort or abnormal noises caused by worn dampers.
• Ride height unsuitable for sporting use or the desired appearance.

Benefits of replacement

• Clear improvement in driving precision and body control.
• Height adjustment independent of spring preload, to retain effective suspension travel.
• 30 levels of rebound and compression adjustment via a single knob.
• Sportier handling while retaining good road comfort.
