The KW site adverties the V1/V2/V3 as having a max drop of around 1.5in on a 350z. However, a vendor here advertises the coilovers saying that they are able to go as low as 4in on a Z. Which one is correct?

 

i'd go with the manufacturer's figures as they designed it, not some guy trying to make more sales...

 

Honestly I don't really believe either.. 1.5" sounds too small and 4" sounds a bit too much. Who was the dealer?

 

I have the option of about a -2.5" drop on KW2

 

Why get great coilovers if you want to lower your car to the point of not having any up travel.

 

But it seems like it can only has 1" of adjustment between max and min just by looking at the rear adjustment ****.

 

I've dropped my V3s maxed in the rear and I had no wheel gap at all. If I had to guess it was probably about 2.5"

 

When your dealing with a honest manufactuer AND one that does it's engineering, you will not see big differances between min and max drops on setups that adjust height via spring preload. What Kw publishes makes sense. Being able to squeez a extra mount of drop below what they publish might be possible, but Kw's engineer's don't think it's good idea or they would have included that much drop in their specs.

On the whole, if 1.5" isn't enough chaulk it up to not having don the reasearch you should have before you bought.

 

Uh... thanks, but I didn't buy these.

 

KW V3's has a TAV (I think that's it ) range of 1.5" drop but I'm sure it drops lower than that because I accidentally slammed mine

 

seems like it can drop pretty low now that i see this...

glad i found this thread.... puts my concerns to rest on K-dubs' lowing capabilities
