Just wondering how many of you are running this setup and how threads did you turn up from the base for the fronts and rears?

 

Really? No one?

 

I'm hoping for some feedback too as this is the coilover setup I'm looking at as well.

 

Well BadPiggy it looks like I will have to install and find out myself how many threads it will be for the front and rears. Now I have to wait for better weather or I may end up waiting for spring.

 

I have these but not sure what your asking. Can you clarify your question?

 

What I am asking is starting at the bottom of the perch for the rears how many threads up and what is gap and the same for the fronts where you start from where the threads started from the base of the strut how many turns(exposed) threads to the bottom of the adjuster is it set at and what is your height? It is hard to explain. I may have to take some pics for clarification.

 

I usually recommend K/W coilovers and if you want to save some coin go with the ST coilovers which are made by K/W.

 

That is not my question my friend. I know KW's is a great product but I already bought this kit. If I would by KW's I would go V3's but that is big money. I had V2's on my VW and was pretty happy with it but didn't play with the damping.

 

Call me stupid....but what is K/W?
I'm not figuring that abbreviation out.

 

It is a European based suspension company. Very similar to Eibach but their primary focus is on suspension kits, coilovers, motorsports, etc... They make an excellent product and rarely on sale hence why I picked up the Eibach coilovers. If I was loaded with $$$ I would pull the trigger for KW V3's but since I am not the Eibach's will do the job. Since I live in the Great white north and drive my car all year round I didn't want to skimp and get the cheaper ST Coilovers because they will rust.
Here is a link for KW Suspensions for reference.

Lowest setting on perches 0 turns for the rear is 1" from tire to fender. Without the brackets and perches it's a full drop 0" of height from tires to fenders.

Would highly recommended rear relocation brackets for the (LCA) Lower control arms. On 1" good ride quality on 0" ride quality is really harsh, looks cool but still harsh.

On the fronts I removed the sway bar and bracket of the tube and gained about an 1 1/5" of drop. You can get a 3" drop if you do this. With the brackets on the lowest height is' about 1.1/5"s of a drop and up for the fronts.

 

Finally got around to installing my suspension. To my surprise my suspension is made by KW while the springs and keeper springs say Eibach. Even the dust boot says KW. From what I can see it is the same setup as KW V 1's. I'll post up some pics shortly after it settles.

 

any pics?
