They have 0 track days and roughly 5k street miles on them. The MCS serial # is 2352 as seen in one of the pictures. MCS does not set a complete kit. They only make and sell the shock and associated hardware so all of the other parts have to be sourced from other vendors.

Below are all of the parts included in this setup. The original price is listed to give you a realistic view of what a complete setup will cost if you decide to purchase new.

MCS 3 Way Remote Coilovers: $6,400
Hypercoil Front Springs 7" x 2.25" 600lbs/in: $75
Hypercoil Rear Springs 9" x 60mm 900lbs/in: $85
Vorshlag Camber Plates: $440
Bimmerworld Swaybar End Links: $110
Rogue Engineering Rear Height Adjusters: $195
MCS Strut Adapter Sleeve Set: $140
MCS Pressure Gauge: $125
Powerflex Urethane Rear Shock Mounts: $85
Bimmerworld 2.25" Spring Thrust Sheet Set: $15
Swift 60mm Spring Thrust Sheet Set: $25
Nitrogen Regulator and Filling Hose: $150
Nitrogen Tank: $100
Total: $7,945


The nitrogen tank, regulator, filling hose, and MCS pressure gauge are not required if you have a shop do the install because they should have those. They are required if you are going to adjust the shock pressures. They can be adjusted from 100 psi to 275 psi. A 10 psi change in nitrogen pressure in the shock results in an 8 lbs/in change in the shock’s “spring” force. I found this out when I called MCS requesting what shock pressure I should run. They recommend starting with 175 psi and adjust the pressures to adjust the car’s balance via the effective spring rate. If you are seeking the 3-way setup, then adjusting the shock pressures seems like a natural progression so the nitrogen parts are included in this setup. I bought a new shiny nitrogen tank but had to swap it for an average looking one when I went to Airgas because they only do exchanges at my location.

The 7” front spring is very common. I was only able to get down to the stock ZCP ride height in the front. You will need a 6” spring and most likely a helper spring if you want to go lower. Please contact a shop if you want more information on what spring will give you what ride height. The rear of the car with this setup can go very low and higher than stock.

I found this setup to be very compliant and well-controlled on the street. I personally ran 0 clicks for high and low-speed compression and 8 clicks for rebound. Running higher compression settings is still very compliant on the street, but I decided to maximize comfort. You will, of course, have much higher settings for running the car on the track which I never did. I ran 19 x 10 ET25 front wheel with a 255/35 tire and had a lot of clearance in the front. The rear has the same clearance as stock because this is a divorced setup just like stock.

They are boxed and ready to ship. If you want to estimate your shipping costs, they will be shipped via UPS from 32258.

MCS box: 37lbs - 7” x 19” x 31”
All other parts box: 42lbs - 12” x 12” x 16”

This setup is not (divorced rear spring) . However, you do have the option to run a rear coilover setup with the MCS 3WR rear damper.
