You may require spacers. We've had some E36 cars that didn't... and some that did. It'll depend on what width/offset wheels you're running. We just suggest customers have a set of spacers on hand just in case.

hmm just made up my mind on the GC track/school kit

what are the spring rates for the rears?
especially the variant2?

are the shocks by KW? or are they Konis? if konis, SA or DA?

thx

nice, i've been waiting for a GB to get the V2 set. (Passing on GC, H&R for sure now)

Is KW supposed to be "better" than the GC Track/school kit?

Nathan, all technical specs are included in the spreadsheet -- pricing, spring rates and lowering range.

KW V2 units use Koni inserts specifically valved for their application. KW V3 units are built in-house by KW.

Is KW supposed to be "better" than the GC Track/school kit?

KW's V2 uses a Koni setup much like the GC kit. It's going to really come down to valving and spring rates as to which one ride and handles better. I haven't driven on the GC kit so I can't give you first hand information but the KWs are pretty amazing both on the street and on the track. Of course you do get the stainless steel casing on the KWs for rust prevention whereas the GCs do not have this.

Would the V1's require spacers on a 98 M3/4 with staggered 10 spoke stock M wheels?

[WK446]

All:

I purchased a set of KW V2 Coilovers (non-INOX) from Pro-Imports during their last group buy and the service was excellent.

That being said, I am running spacers for the V2 setup in my 1997 M3/4 with the factory forged wheels. I have 15 mm front spacers (in anticipation of a big brake kit) but I believe 10 mm spacers should clear those wheels.

I am very pleased with their performance.

okay, for the rears it says 'p' does that mean progressive?

Correct.

i don't run spacers.

I have tried several coilovers systems and this is by far the best. In it's category the V3's are unbeatable the next step would be like a moton setup but you could also get the racing 3 way adjustable system from KW (not included in the group buy of course, only for racing purposes).

I swear by them and to prove it, if any of you are in the area I will take you for a ride and your search for a street/track coilover system will be over..

I second that. I have been in Dado's car b4 and his suspension setup is very impressive. If you don't believe him, he will def show you.

Is the pricing you gave up top for the v1, v2, or v3?
Thanks

There should be pricing, spring rates and lowering heights for ALL BMW applications and V1, V2 and V3 kits in the spreadsheet file.

here is the page with the systems that are in the group buy.

Do the struts come assembled with the upper spring plates and everything or would you use your stock parts and a spring compressor to assemble it?

[Pro-Imports]

If you buy new strut mounts and I believe a retainer ring, you should be able to install your coilovers without a spring compressor.

Ok not really sure wat those parts are (no experience with coilover kits) do you sell these?

[Dado]

you can use the stock spring plates, I didn't need a spring compressor to put them on. Later on I added the GC camber plates just because of the need for more camber.

to make it short, all you need is the coilover and it will bolt right on.

Will you be around this weekend?

Dado, its interesting that you mentioned that motons were even higher performance than the KWs because I was reading an article in a recent Grassroots motorsports and they claimed tat the motons actually were a bit slower than the TCklines in the test.

Right now, I have my eyes set on the TC klines, but with this awesome pricing, I may change my mind depending on how they compare to the TC klines.

I wish I could experience both of them before I take the plunge. Is anyone else on the board running the KWs? Hopefully they can chime in too.

Are the KWs as street friendly as teh TCKlines, or are they more track oriented like the GCs?

Thanks for all the help

I have the v2s, they are the older version but i believe all the mechanics are the same. All i can say is i love them. Ride quality and build quality are both top notch. Mine are set half way and it seems to be a good medium between ride and handling. They eliminate alot of body roll and nose dive. Would i buy them again? Without a doubt.

[Lanchai]

As title!
If yes, I expect the spring rate will be stiffer at the rear. Am I correct?
