hey folks. just saying hi. it's been a while since i've posted and i like to make sure you guys are keeping out of trouble.

i also have a suspension question. i've been running koni and eibachs since about 65k (i'm at 115k right now). think they are toast after 50k of city driving? i think they may be. i'm considering KW V1's, but would like to know what ya'll think could work for a guy that likes a fast, tight ride, low to the ground and does not track the car.

thanks!

heh. the summary of your post -> "its the end of the world as we know it...and i feel fine."

They're a stiff ride, you'd probably love them - good at keeping the wheels on the ground over bumps/dips, great road feedback.

That damn Dan

Mine arent what they used to be either....Never did like them much though.

other due to various issues and Bilstein has been very good about replacing.

and no comparison. Different league altogether. In fairness...not sure if H&R has improved on their design or offer an upgraded version

To be honest, I am saving my pennies for a proper statis coilover set.

how much, etc. how was the install? front are coilovers correct?

DBA as "KW Suspensions North America". $1225 +50 shipping - I got the all stainless setup (I seem to recall there's a galvanized option); the install was about an hour/wheel plus alignment - easy; and yes - front c/o's are correct. tcarbon might have a better price - at the time HPA was the North American distributor; they answered all my questions, including some after the install. I've reset the height myself a couple of times - also easy.
