What can I say? They were sold to me as KW V3's. The box says KW V3...

Not sure what more I can add???

Oh and they just kicked the Dragon's ***! ;-)

Holy moly. Shouldn't you be more concerned with butterfly screws, your catalytic converters breaking apart and going back into the engine, your trunk leaking, your headgasket blowing, your transmission grinding, your paint peeling and your knock sensor pulling power than complex suspension questions about two cars you don't even own?

In the back, the oem or replacement can no way be called coilovers as they are separate parts yet the terminology continues for Performance/adjustable components..

Plus rep point for that one...

I am under the impression w/ springs you need to get a camber kit but w/ coilovers you don't.. am i off in never never land or is that the general consensus?

The need for a camber kit is determined by the amount of drop...Most springs and Coilovers start at least 1" lower so a kit will most likely be needed with either..

Not the case on this car - once you lower the car, sometimes even as little as 1/2 inch, at least an aftermarket rear camber/toe kit is required to bring things back to spec. Up front, the car can deal with, and actually likes, a bit more negative camber. I have not yet seen a proper front a arm set for these cars, but there will be some good, solid options available soon. For the rear, there are several good kits available

So would you go with KW3's or Teins Flex for a DD with occasional track use? Also do the KW3's have any type of electronic control?

Z1Performance · 10-26-2009, 05:01 PM

electronic dampening control is not a feature on the KW

define "occassional track" - club days, stock type tires? Or are you talking about more advanced groups with r compounds?

Tein Flex wouldn't be anywhere near my radar
