Send me a PM with the details, I'm in San Diego which is pretty local I just picked up my car last week but I'm anxious to start track preparing it!

 

Well I finally got some time to put the K-Sport Coil over in. Thanks again to Michael at Acute Performance for getting the parts to me quickly and the good deal.

The job was pretty easy and straight forward. I would say start to clean up was about 3.5 hours doing it by myself and with adjusting the ride height.

I am happy with the look - dropped it about 1 7/8" - ride feels good for the brief test drive I took.

Only issue I had was the rear shocks - the 3 bolts on top stock at 10mm 1.50 pitch and the K-sport are 10mm 1.25 pitch. Wish they would include the new hardware - had to run to the store to get 6 new bolts (included in the time above). On other thing to note is the fronts do have built in camber plates - but to adjust them the front shock towers need to be lowered off the body as you cannot adjust them once they are on the car.

I will keep you all posted with long term driving impression and durability.

Here are some pics also - I only had the front after shot - I will update with full car pics soon!

Out of curiosity I weighed the K-sport front and rear - I will update with weight of stock suspension.

I also installed a FabSpeed Cat delete x-pipe (thanks Dan @ Vivid!). Stock cans weighed in at 14.5 lbs each so I saved about 25+ lbs. I am happy with the sounds and performance. Probably the best bang for my buck so far. Lost some low end - but once it hits 3500 RPM it comes on good and pulls VERY hard to the top. Over 3 hours of driving and no CEL yet

Here are some pics before and during install:

 

few more pics (first one is after):

 

Great! I'm glad to hear it all went well. The allen nuts on the camber are 5mm, if you get a ball head allen you can adjust the camber without fully dropping the suspension, you simple just unscrew the top 3 screws and lower the suspension and you can get to them.

How many clicks are you at right now?

I have a couple sets left from this order coming in next week if anyone is interested.

I got the car aligned and corner weighted last Friday - things came out nice. The shop that did the alignment liked the build quality of the coil overs and had nothing but good things to say about them from a construction/adjust ability standpoint.

The car felt much nicer on the way home now that its aligned - the front end felt loose after initial install which had me concerned but that all went away.

Ill update more as I drive and get some miles on them!!

 

Great to hear! I'm still looking for other cars. Let me know.

I would be interested as well. 02' C4s Tip. Factory Suspension, 36k miles.

Looking to button up the suspension prior to Seibring in Sept., so let me know if you would be interested in a FL sponsoree.

 

Hi there

Hi Michael

shipping costs are no problem.
i could install those coils and test them over here on a trackday.
you could ask about the shipping costs and maybe write me an PM about the rest of the deal !!
