I like mine, I have not had any problems with them. They are a little expensive, but you get what you pay for. I would put up some pics, but my car is at the body shop.

For a Damper kit there not expensive, probably middle of the road. but when compared to all the coil over kits out there it's a little pricy.

i took them off to sell after only having them on for about 6 months because they felt kinda funny and one side had parts coming off. when i bought the N+ they were so much better and i could really see the differance in the corners.

I dunno, maybe you guys are installing them wrong or something because Ksports on Ep3s (and most cars in general) have gotten some pretty damn good reviews. I have a line of friends running them on their EP's and they love them! Plus you can gooooo really low. I just got a set for my ep3 and plan on installing them soon. Can't beat 36 way adjustables imo

i heard...ksport, d2, and function form are all made by one company and then sold to ksport, d2, and function form where they put their own logos on it afterwards...gotta find that link where i read that...if you look at all three, they all have the same setup...


but in my opinion..to each his own and remember you get what you pay for...so if you tight on money i dont see why not get them...i heard pro's and con's but mostly more con's bout them....
