KSport Coilovers - Mini review - Props to BodykitsNW
Call me and schedule the Sway bar install when u got some time on your hands. It was great meeting you, thanks for having us do the install as well. If you need help tuning it some more let me know, but it should be pretty good for what your using it for right now.

I'll be ordering mine soon with the same custom rates 11/9.
How is the body roll, the suspension during bumpy conditions, handling characteristics compared to your old set up?

are you driving around on the softest setting? And is there a big firmness differnece between max hardness and max softness? I have heard that they adjustment range is rather small, can you confirm?
i have ksport adjus. coilovers on my 95 240sx as well. for the price, they ROCK. dampening is outstanding and you can get a spring rate that will suit you needs. only issue i have with them is the compression adjustment isnt set by clicks. the adjustment ***** just turn, making you have to guess about where they are at. not too big of a deal but it would be nice. i will probly go ksport for my integra because i like them so much in the s14!

I was told by Ksport that the reason for that is because the current setups will be compatible with their electronic control unit (similar to EDFC) once it's released.
I have the Ksports on my WRX (that I got from JLB) and love them as well
Any Ksport dealer can get custom rates.

Yah anyone in their right mind can get custom rates. But knowing what rates will work for a specific application is the key. We offer and make setups for cars specifically with h22 swaps, drag racing, street/strip and more.
I think i'm going to recommend these(and you andy) to a coworker of mine,
he want's me to do his suspension for him.
I was thinking about omnipower, because he's never had any aftermarket suspension before, so I figured a mild setup would be good.
But I've heard too much crap about omni's products, and I have been eyeballing the ksports for some time now.
Then you get damping adjustability, and Bodykits NW(who i've spoken to and I think he seems pretty legit), so I give it a thumbs up as well.

I am also running the Ksport 11/9 on my EG8. getting close to the 5000 mile mark on street driving. I started out with full soft and have since moved up to full hard. Seems they are holding up to my abusive dring.
I also got mine from Andy and he is very helpful when issues arrise.
Now I do have a question for Andy, Can I get stiffer rates than 11/9 and can Ksport revalve my current shocks for higher rates?

Yah we can do that no problem. I actually have quite a few people running a stiffer setup on their EG daily. I am sure we can figure something out. Revalving yours might be a lil costly, cause I would rather have them revalved rather than swapping out some springs you know. I have actually swapped out the spring on the 11/7 and 11/9 without having a revalve and it wasn't too bad, but for best results I recommend having us change them out. If anything I am sure I can find a buyer for your old coilovers and I will hook u up with a stiffer rate bro.
Whatever you need man, just let me know.
Also with our new matchin camber kits, I know offer a full line of spring rates from what Ksport offers.

i have GC coils with agx.. and i am dumped..low about 2.6... but the ride is very rough and bouncy.. on my mitsu.
to the owner of ksports... assume i get ksports and lower the same around 2.5 inches.. should i expect the ride to be rough and bouncy or.. smooth ?.. need some feedback

That's probably because your riding on the bumpstops. Raise the car up and watch how much the ride improves....

That very well can be the case.
We actually finally hooked up his rear sway, the car handles even better than before. I had to get some washers and hardware to mount the stock GSR sway correctly so the endlinks where not in a awkward position. Turned out nicely, we just ran out of time when we did the install.

i cut the bump stops .. still.. raised it up little yesterday and stuff seems very harsh when it goes over potholes goes like BAMM or..a uneven section on freeways...seems like the whole thing is goes to break or somethin..
