KW V3 coilover camber plates?

Can someone confirm for me if the KW V3 coilovers come with adjustable front camber plates? I've been getting mixed answers from vendors, some say they do come with them, others say only the KW clubsport's come with them .

If they don't come with the camber plates, are there plates that I can purchase separately that will work with the V3's?

Thanks!

I've heard people are having success with the vorshlag plates and the V3s.

The Vorshlag plates will work (since they are made to work with factory struts). But remember these are bastard camber plates. Its going to be ugly.

On another note, for the price they charge for the V3's you'd think they came with camber plates. But remember that people rave about how the V3's ride "so nice". They are able to do this by retaining the rubber top hats (instead of the metal camber plates). Going with camber plates will kill the ride. (metal on metal)

Not sure what you mean by bastard camber plates....but the Vorshlags are awesome. Huge spherical bearing, added caster, reduced stack height for more bump travel.

Hands down the best plates out there for EVO.

The TEIN SRC - http://www.tein.com/products/super_racing.html

But you have to purchase the springs separately.

I think the KW V3 are a great option.

425 + shipping for a pair is the price.

For the X there really isn't anything else that's very good. I've been disappointed by the durability of most everything out there for EVO. Cuscos are okay but don't last long.
