coilover recommendations?

Springs -- Swift
Coilovers -- KW V3

if money is tight...pick up the Swift springs...they are the best out there.
if you are close, wait a little and save for the KW's...my customers ALWAYS thank me for making them wait for the KW's

Thank you again Scott

I'll be ordering another set of KW V3's for my 2008-2009 Z06 when I buy it this year.

Good question, i'd also like to know this one.

Baer383 · 10-17-2011, 07:55 PM

Knowing it is a progressive spring

Scott@FontanaNissan · 10-18-2011, 01:36 PM

Hey guys...because they use progressive springs...there is no spring rate

No, the dampers / shocks / shock housings are not the same and are valved completely differenently as they is a noticable difference in simple ride feel between the 2. somewhere on one of the toyota or 300zx boards did a shock dyno comparison and they were no where near each other.

Incorrect. BC and Powertrix are in no way affiliated. BC is manufactured in Taiwan and Powertrix is manufactured in Korea. Powertrix does private label for a few other coilover companies (Not BC)

Sure no problem. I'm sure many will appreciate CORRECT information.
Many would also agree to post that which is not false and helps the community instead of uselessness that does not help anyone. Never figured to get chastized for that. Just expected a bit more maturity on this board. LOL. Enjoy.

If anybody was looking for this info they stopped looking in Oct 2011,and for a newbie I would have expected more maturity in knowing that forums don't want to revive threads.

Read the rules

Umm not really? For the record I actually read through all 4 pages. Decent info.

That being said most times necrothreads are a PITA and useless
