Just had KW Coilovers installed on my LS. Lowered car approximately
3/4 of an inch. These are pricey but fully adjustable coilovers. Car looks
great squatting a bit more, great ride and exceptional turn-in and handling.
Although these coilovers were designed for the Shelby GT500 they work
very well on the Boss.

 

I'm very happy with my V3's as well.

I am still debating on what to do with my suspension.... Just add some springs or go all out with a coilover system......

 

You asked for it, so here they go. KW V3's on my car.

looks good.

 

Was that at Nashville?

 

I miss my KW's from my 350z. Planning on running the clubsports in the Boss eventually.

 

I'm with you on on that one...my wifes e90 has v1, my r56 had v2's, and my z4m had v3's. I really disliked my v3's on the track, namely bc of the progressive springs and it was slightly underdampened. I'm thinking of getting the clubsports as well, but maybe a koni yellow and springs combo would be better? I really dislike the fact that kw's still use twin tube shocks....maybe I'm just jaded from my offroad suspension setups, perhaps twin tubes are better for the tarmac?

As good as the boss suspension is from the factory, my g500 w/ fox shocks on setting 1/8 has more compression/rebound control than my boss does on setting 5. Would you guys w/ the v3's say that the ride feels way more composed?

 

KWs are great but I LOVED my custom RaceComp Engineering JRZ Rs Pros on my STI. JRZ are the best all around track shock IMO. Motion and Ohlins are slot more money but the ROI is not even close to the JRZ

 

Agree.... If I go all out chances are I will go with jrz

However I am also looking into the exact setup the 302s runs..... It has been proven....

 

That has crossed my mind as well.

 

smart idea...... if i was going solidly into road racing i think i would do the same thing

 

Bump for an older thread. I too love my V3's.

What are you guys running for compression/rebound setting front/rear?
