Re: What Do You Think About KSport?

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.).

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.
