hey
just curious if anyone has had any reviews or anyone running these at the moment?

thanks

I've got v3's in my crx that I bought used.

I am yet to drive in them as my car is a long term project in the making but they can go VERY low.

That's all I have to say about them, hope it helps even just a little

Running them in my EGK20 track car at the moment.

They are a fantastic unit that is worth every penny. Allows you to run really big swaybars while retaining day to day driveability.

They cant go as low as bc or buddy club etc but with these coilovers its not about going low.

PM me and I can run you thru a bit more info

[destrukshn]

i'm not after about being low, i was practibility and comfort, with performance in mind.

Practicality and comfort these are right up there

Gumpert Apollo uses KW as well as most of the european hillclimb cars..

very compliant on the street

will take the bumps of normal daily driving with a high level of comfort
almost as comfortable as oem

take them on the track and its another level,
you can actually feel the difference when you adjust the coilover (soft-hard for example)
as apposed to cheaper coilovers

v1-3 all depends on your budget

at the end of the day, unless your slamming the **** out of them on the street... you shouldnt have any issues

[destrukshn]

are you guys running it too?
I want the v3's I can get them at a decent price. or I'm going to Germany a few months so I might buy them there.
Its a lot of quid so I just want to make sure before I shell out the money only to regret it. lol
because looking at the website it indicates that the v3 is more comfortable than the v2, but more track orientated too.
the v1 apparently the bodies are made in China and have had a few issues.

Avoid the v1

Hi guys,

I am also interested in KW V3 for my dc2r. But comparing V3 and Ohlins DFV and Toda.

Which one is more suitable for track, eg:Winton

Many thanks

Avoid the v1

Why not v1 ?

[junoki]

I was looking at v1
For comfort

No dampening on v1. Huge pitfall for a piece that price.

[junoki]

I was planning on fixed spoon dampers and progressive springs
But heard they discontinued the springs for eg6
Hence the kw v1
Less options .... Less headaches .... Coz im not a sussy savvy kinda guy
nor am i gonna track, hill climb, gymkana etc...

[junoki]

But thanks for the heads up about damp feature rudy
