88-91 Prelude Ksport Coilovers
I just wanted to put this out on the Honda-Tech forum. I have started a group buy over in http://www.preludepower.com/fo...72638 for the Ksport Control Pro Coilover Kit.
This kit is comparable to the Tein Mono Flex system that Tein offers, but for about $200 less.
Here are the details:

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote »</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">Ksport Kontrol Pro Fully Adjustable Coilover Kits provide the ultimate in suspension technology for your street or track car. 36 levels of dampening adjustment allow you to fine tune the ride to your handling and comfort needs. The dampening adjusts compression and rebound simultaneously for ease of adjustment. Pillow ball top mounts in the front and rear on some applications allow you to maintain vehicle manufacturer suspension geometry design. The pillow ball top mounts also allow you a more direct feel for solid driver response. Camber adjustability is included on pillow ball top mounts that allow it for the ability to adjust camber from the actual coilover, instead of a separate camber kit.
Most applications utilize an adjustable lower mount, which means you adjust height without losing suspension travel like some other coilover designs do. With the mounts and most pieces of the coilover being designed for 6061 billet aluminum the kit is lightweight, durable, and rust resistant. The steel shock body is electroplated with zinc to resist rust and the elements. The valving of each set is matched to the springs installed for unmatched ride quality and reliability.
The Ksport system uses a Monotube design in which the oil and gas are separated within the cylinder. When compared to twin tube designs the Monotube dissipates heat better, allows finer dampening adjustments, and requires more expensive design process. Aeration and cavatation are a lot less common in a Monotube design, which results in a better ride.
The Ksport Kontrol Pro Coilover kit has been designed with professional road racing in mind offering extremely high value and performance.
Key Features:
36-way adjustable dampening
Made from high quality 6061 Aluminum with T6 for increased hardness
Compression/Rebound adjustable
Adjustable spring perch for height adjustment
Adjustable body allowing maximum suspension travel
Monotube High Pressure Design reduces oil leakage
Electroplated body for protection from corrosion and rust
Warranty:
One Year Limited Warranty - With a 24-48 hour turn around. KsportUSA will quickly send you the replacement shock if for some reason the shock blows (Only charges will be the cost of shipping).
- If you do not feel you are able to replace the shock yourself, you can send the whole assembly in and Ksport will replace and re-assemble for free minus Shipping to and from Ksport.
Post Warranty: Ksport will sell you a new replacement shock for $120 + shipping for the Front(each) and $100 + shipping for the Rear(each) - If you do not feel you are able to replace the shock yourself, you can send the whole assembly in and Ksport will replace and re-assemble for free minus Shipping to and from Ksport. </TD></TR></TABLE>
Add on Edit: I spoke with Danny this past week, in regards to the spring rates for some of you who are concerned about this. I informed Danny that we have a bunch of swapped H22 3rd gen ludes who have heavier front ends due to the swap. Danny informed me and said that is no problem, they stock springs and can make springs to compensate for this, and for those who still want a stiffer or softer spring rate, they will accomodate that as well.

Well I wanted to put out a feeler for a complete coil over system designed for our Ludes..
As always I will try to negotiate a reasonble price for us, but I will need the community to back me up again. I know their is interest, I don't need interest, I need real commitments.
Update: 8/13/07
The price's will be:
Order of 10: $950.00 for all four corners + a flat shipping rate of $50.00 for domestic. $950 + $50 = $1000 shipped
Canadian shipping will be: $85.00 as long as the weight does not exceed a certain weight limit.
If we fall below that number the prices will go up. And this price will be for the first group buy. After the group buy the retail price will kick in at a much higher price.
The kits retail for $1495.00 not including shipping. So, needless to say I think I negotiated a good deal for all four corners.
If we can get 20 buyers the price will go down $50.00. Which would be: $900 + $50 = $950 shipped
Please copy and paste your names on the list below of all of who will actually pay once this project takes off the ground.
You know I can do it, so stand behind me and lets see what we can do together.
If you have any questions or concerns at all, please let me know. Here is my contact info:
