Tired of wheel gap?

Robispec with KW is finalizing a new coilover Varient 3 suspension for your X. This is a full system and includes front adjustable swaybar mounts rear 25mm sway and front and rear bump steer and roll center kits. The X isn't as fast as the 4g63/ct9a platform yet... but you can now corner with them!

Awsome man, the car looks sick dropped. But the X could corner with the IX any day even before the suspension!! But good work, I am excited to see the changes of how it handles with the new suspension.

I noticed that looking from the rear in stock ride height, the lower control arms looked pretty level.

By lowering the car the control arms will point upwards moving from the center out towards the wheels.

How will you correct this geometry problem when you lower the car?

front roll center kit with tie rod ends it uses an extended ball joint like we do on the VII-IX cars
Rear bump steer kit using an eccentric bushing and if wanted a rear camber link with 2 rod ends
