Exclamation Coilover: KSport vs ........... ?

Sup guyz

my topic is kind of similer to VOridin

let start with mine - THE ONLY REASON I WANNA GET COILOVER IS TO ADJUST CAMBER !

otherwise im happy with OEM Suspension + H&R lowering springs

the reason is im about to get weddsport 18x10 offset 18
so it needs to be adjusted on front wheels

sooooooooo .. the main thing im looking for in coilover is Camber Adjustment

my eye was on KSport Kontrol Pro Damper System
my friend had on his X - n he was satisfied .. this is the one:
















but after browsing n looking around i was disappointed about KSport CO from people negative feedbacks topics !!

im totally confused


is there any1 who can help

this is my driving style:
** 50% Daily Drive
** 35% Drag Race
** 15% Track

so based on my style + Camber Adjust = im looking for this type of coilover

my budget is between 1.5k - 2k



guyz im waiting for ur reply . . .


Thanx & Best Regards

1.5k-2k budget might as well buy a mono flex or a kw for a bit more.

KMac or Vorshlag camber plates.

This is a good option and then I suggest you save up and get a good coilover when you are really ready. Look at KW V3, Ohlin, AST etc. You really do get what you pay for so maybe just get the adjustment you want now and then get the colovers later, when you are ready.

I've always heard good things from the Apexi reviews too.. They are in the 1600 range.

But I agree, you could just get Vorshlag camber plates..

Camber plates are a great suggestion. These bolts are also worth looking into: http://www.perrinperformance.com/mit...-bracket-width

Ya if your just looking to screw up how your car handles and how your tires wear by adding camber just get the plates and save your money for your next set of tires you will need very soon after.

Which suspension components to purchase for aesthetics always makes for a great Evom discussion.

Those only work for people with no 'h' on their keyboard. No idea why that is. One of the great mysteries of life.
