I got the KW V3 coilovers I purchased from BWK installed last Friday. Great job by the guys at APH My car is sitting at the same height Barry had on Voltex Z however I lowered the front a bit. Overall I'm very happy with how the car looks and handles - a very nice upgrade over the Nismo S tuned suspension I had. I'm going to leave all the height, damping and rebound settings as is and then tweak them once I take the car out of storage next year. I'll probably go a bit lower once I roll my fenders. I've attached some pics...

 

Damn youuuuuu,
I needed those! >

 

Sorry bro... seems like a lot of locals had their eyes on these coilovers.

 

I wish the KWs went a little lower... Im maxed out in the rear

 

Ya you need to go lower!!! Get those fenders rolled. Did you get an alignment yet? If not roll your fenders and go lower first.

 

needs more low

should've got ed to roll your fenders while the wheels were off for the coils install!

 

SEXY~

 

anyone winter drive on these?

i'd get a set but i dont want coils in the winter because the seals blow.... not sure if the KW's would have that same issue though.

 

looks good man! Nice buy.


I was talking to one of the faster guys I race with and he said the number 1 mod he did to his car was a corner balance. Not sure if you had this done, but I am sure APH and if not Sasha can do this. Makes a huge difference.

 

Thanks for the feedback guys...
More low will happen in the spring as I'm going to store my car in about 6 weeks.

Good question Bing - unfortunately I don't no the answer and I have no plans to drive mine through the winter.

 

Great advice Rob I don't think Ed@ APH can do this. Sasha did my alignment last year so I'll probably hit him up once I'm done tweaking all my settings.

 

I will be driving this winter with my KWs..... Gonna try to stay slammed til the first bad snow storm

 

If you have the original receipt you get free rebuilds from their lifetime warranty. The full stainless steel strut casing really helps for winter as well. My threads still look brand new and turn without any effort even after over 50k km on my V3's. Other brands use an anti rust coating which eventually wears off.

I had my alignment done at SG then Sasha took me out for an awesome test drive around the block to help me tweak the settings

 

need to get original receipt from BWK

 

LMK when you need the fenders rolled. I don't butcher em

Looks good man, think this is the first time I've seen your car....

 

Thanks Blain... Do you use an Eastwood Fender Roller?

 

I had my car corner weighted at APH

 

ive never seen that documented anywhere?

link?

 

The warranty info on the site is vague, it just says limited lifetime warranty. I actually called them a while back and they told me rebuilds are covered. I forgot the exact process but you'll have to pay for shipping to California (better then shipping to Germany) and it has to be from the authorized dealer too.

I found this link as well
