Does anyone on here currently have K-Sport coilovers on their RSX? If so, what dampering settings did you choose for it? and how did you go about adjusting it? Also, how did you mount your break lines and wheel sensors? I've been tring to research on how to tune the ksport coilovers, but not too many people have that setup. any help would be great! thanks in advance...

You adjust them with the turn ****. One way for soft the other for stiffer. There is no clicking etc when you turn it so you have to go by your eyes on how far you adjusted. The setup comes with a new brakeline mount that you put on the shock/strut. I drive an Ep3 but its not going to be any different.

Where exactly on the strut did you mount the bracket? did you drill a screw threw it? or did you use the bigger bolts on the bottom of the stut? also, when adjusting the dampering did you start all the way "soft" and adjusted little by little towards the "hard" side? thanks!

I used one of the existing bolts. Also I started at soft and moved to the stiff setting. I have kept it on full stiff the whole summer, and have just now moved it to full soft for the winter.

 

how about your rears, how did you mount your breaklines? same way? also, are you pretty happy with the ride quality? not too many reviews out there for the k sport, other than that thread by drflickner....

 

Same way. Yeah I have been very happy with them. Seriously well worth the $800 shipped.

You are such a dirty little ***** too...

 

I have these on my rsx. There was no new breakline mounts.. You ziptie them to the strut.

The brakeline mounts are the 4 pieces of black metal that looks like wrenches but are actually mounts. If your kit didnt come with them its the first one I have seen that. Every kit I have seen online and in person has come with the mounts.

 

YEa. Never got those. I bought my about 6 months ago.

Also here is a link to a thread asking about the mounts and Ksport comes into the thread and says they put the mounts in everybox if the apllication calls for it or not.

rawsx... what setting do you have set for your dampering? how do you like the k sports? aslo, by any chance do you have pics of your install for them? thanks!

 

cnyej1.. clean ride! looks dope slammed. what kind of rims you got.. those are sick.. what size? oh and for the brackets.. did you have to bend them to make them work with your break lines?

They are 16x7 Work Emotion CRkai's, and yes I bent the brackets so that it would come near touching these wheels. Im a little **** about that though.

 

What are the spring rates on the k-sports? i was going to get the hks hypermax rs but i need rsx tie rods in order to instal them and i dont want to buy the extra parts just to put them on.

 

Nevermind i found it on their page...7k/8k for an Ep3

 

what dampering settings do you guys have set for the ksports.. for daily street driving.. also, for the rear install of an rsx, was it hard or tricky to remove the trunk panels?

 

Summer full stiff
Winter full soft

is there a logic for that? like why is it best to go full soft for the winter? and how is it if you tune it in the middle... thanks

 

its easy

IDK if theres logic, lol. Its personal preference. I like it fully stiff in the summer when I can actually drive the car hard etc. In the winter i prefer a more cushy ride since im driving less aggresive etc.

In the middle its, well in the middle. Not super stiff, but not super cushy. Its in the middle

 

Not to scary anyone, but here is what happen to my ksports after a lil more than a year....











Drop was decent, the ride was great for the first 2 months but then i started to hear something slightly banging and on certain bumps it would be loud, never knew what it was and now my guess is it slowly was ****** up the passenger side, driver side seems perfectly fine
