Long awaited KW's

ah..... look what Santa brought me. A new camara. Don't have to wait for an uplaod cable to the video now.

Here's the KW Variant 3 coil overs.

I'll see if I can somehow transfer my other pictures too.

These were taken today 2" level drop and corner balancing.

You have to look real close as there is an optical illusion. The bottom of the kit is painted Gloss Black. Looks high but it ain't.

Sticks like glue on the track. Can now use tires as roller coaster rails.

Never used slicks yet on this car. Maybe next year.

Nice! These coilovers have interested me for over a year. They sound so technically awesome... one thing I always wondered...do they use the external oil cans as shown in the pics of them... and are there any clearance issues with them at all...esp. I notice you have what sounds like smaller than stock wheels (7.5") is that correct? What if the wheels were wider like 8.5" or 9.5"?

Lastly what settings have you tried and with what results? Thanks :)

Yes you use the cans and there isn't any problem no matter what wheel you use.

I have the settings soft for the front and hard for the rear.

I agree, new wheels are in order! Get the mazdaspeed ones from Lazi :) Your car will look hot with those wheels.
