Adjustable or no?

neenjafus · 04-09-2008, 06:13 PM

Hey Guys,

I'm trying to decide which coilover set to get.

I'm thinking about ST or KW v2. I will try and get to the track 2 or 3 times a year at most.

I don't know how much of a difference the adjustability makes on the v2, can some of you who have them (or maybe have tried both) chime in and tell me if you think the $600 difference is worth it?

I'm not really looking to get maximum times out of my track days, just have some fun. I'm a track newbie, only been once before.

Thanks!

I'd say go for the cheaper one, and with the $600 difference, sign up for 2x track days. The suspension might make your car a little better but typically, time gained on the track is from the person driving.

If you are doing just a little bit of track time, I think the KW V2's would be the optimal choice as you learn and grasp your track times.

Let us know if we can help on either - we just got a ton more back in stock.
