i put the ksport on my V dropped as much as the coilover allows, i feel that the spring rate is too soft, I set the shock damper to hardest setting and its acceptable but shouldn't have to set the damper all the way to get a soft to medium feel, i would like to go with 14k front and 10k rear, by the way i have 08 si wheels and tires with 7mm spacer.

ksports are just another product of china, a tein or dsport and so on with a different name and different color. inconsistant needle valve dampers cheaply made. There 30 way adjustables ***** only actually make about 10 adjustments on both rebound and compresson at the same time. genaric mounting,valving and spring rates.

im pretty much sure tein havent sourced out their production in china,
same as buddy club,JIC...etc, thesse are the few brands that still holds
their standards/quality up to now... ill pay their price cause i know they
good after sale warranty.. we've experienced shipping back their items
for repair.. also its really hard to get an open/direct account to these
companies, thats why i stick to most shops who has this kind of exclusive
contacts... cause almost all shops carries similar products... ksport, skunk2...
D2...BWR..etc. only few can carry the much pricey items..LOL

itll last and work longer as long as one tune it well...
ive heard not so good comments after this product, but when i looked
into how they used it, its mostky their fault, not in a technical aspect
cause i havent used it yet.. but looking from someone who messed around
a LOT of suspensions.. its all wrong,LOL..



btw, whats your rim and tire size, hows the ride???

My girl wants to lower her crv. I can't wait to show her this one It looks hot like that. Do they already make the coilover setup for the crv or do i have to use integra or civic suspension?

BWR has a track set that is adjustable but the normal version is not.

alexeghatch - I also think the BWR is too soft. But i think both kits are probably made by the same shop anyway.
