Any Apex'i S1 reviews?

ddahron · 10-16-2010, 08:45 PM

I know these are fairly new to the 370z, but I am in the market for new coilovers and these caught my attention. I've googled around and found some reviews (on other cars) based on street usage, but would like to know how they perform on the track. Also, would it be a wiser choice to just go with KW v3s for the added adjustability for nearly the same price?

Thanks

Hey,

I have a set on our shop car. I'd be more than happy to let you drive it if you want. I'd definitely recommend these over the KW for street/occasional track and the price is actually a bit lower than KW, and they include upper pillowball mounts and machined lower spring perches whereas the KWs do not.

are the spring rates higher or lower than the KW's?

Awesome! Sounds good, I will definitely stop by when I get a chance!

These are sounding more and more like the ones I want. Mainly street usage, but can be used for the track at times. Not too terribly expensive, and for me personally a better color scheme than purple/yellow. (I know sad reason but still lol)

As soon as a good review for the Apexi's is posted, I will have my decision!

Too bad I installed mine without taking any pictures of it mounted.

I posted a small review here:

I saw that thread Victor and the pics looks sweet, the colors are really awesome, have you had a chance to put some miles on it by chance?

Member blueslate is selling a set in the classifieds. Seems like he gave them pretty good reviews over some other coilovers. I personally can not vouch.

But I have had a number of friends with KW V3s. Always heard great things about the them for a balanced mix of street and track.
