What Do You Think About KSport?

[blageo23]

A friend showed me the KSport coilovers for my car on ebay. They are chea(cheaper then tein) and look pretty solid. So I read up about them and a lot of people were saying "china crap dont buy them" but said nothing further. They also said that Ksport=D2=megan racing. Anyone have any thoughts on these or experience?

Swanny deals in them, his Stealth has them and he loves them. They make really solid products for the 3/S. They seem to be about half the price of Tein.

Yea my buddy got a set on his 3s and he loves em.

[blageo23]

ok good, so they arent complete crap.

Great suspension, and I can beat anyones price on them.

[Super Bleeder!!]

eh, define great. most people are happy as long as they get some overpowered spring and a stiff damper.

put them on a shock dyno and see how they compare with a well known quality manufacturer. though most people probably couldn't give two shits about information like that.

Great = Decent Bang 4 Buck...about the same price as getting 5-way tokico's and some lowering springs...+/- $$$

I have a set for my 2G sitting on the shelf... looks solid...

Now, every since the whole adjustable coilover craze hit the market, every manufacturer has a set that looks almost identical to the next guy.

But truth be told, these probably aren't anywhere near the top notch stuff you'd have to shell a lot of $$$ for (ohlins, blisteins, etc.).

If they are really the same as Megan coilovers thats a good thing since that would make them the same as Apexi. I've heard great things about the Megan/Apexi coilovers from the S2k guys.

I would put them between a tein and a JIC, atleast for the 3s platform as far as stiffness.
I have had no issues with my suspension at all.

Correct. They're a much better option then a set of springs, but they're pretty far away from the real racing setups in terms of quality (the adjustability as far as height and camber is pretty sweet though). I'd say relative to the other options out there, they're a good bet for a street car that sees minor track use. Although depending on spring rates and valving they could be a pretty rough ride for the street if you do a lot of driving (road trips or daily driver).

The adjustablility alone is probably worth the price, but a lot of the coilovers like JIC, Tein, etc make me nervous in their ride quality. The Japanese seem to love really high spring rates and a really stiff ride. That doesn't seem to work very well for the roads you see here in the US.
