Monday, And i got a delivery!!

Very surprised as when KW USA told me they arrived on their wednesday, and i didn't get a conformation for postage to me, so i thought it would be sent out tomorrow (their monday)

 

So hopefully tomorrow i get the front sorted. and get started on the back. 

 

My list:

 

Front struts

Front ball joints

 

Rear struts

Torque tube bearings replace - Requires transaxel drop. Torsion bar drop. exhaust drop to drop the torque tube.

Very exciting Pauly.  Looking forward to hearing your impressions.

 

I'm excited too! Weren't you running KWs on one car?

 

Can I ask how much ? and where did you get them ?

 

I paid just under $3000 delivered. I used street to track. Good bloke and good to deal with. Bought my turbo off him, TiAL housing and eBoost2

Nope - MO30 on the 952 and Koni Yellow coilovers (not MO30) on the 968.  Interested to see how the newer technology compares...

 

Someone i've spoken to has KWs can't remember who. From what i know, the high and low speed valving is suppose to be day and night compared to other shocks as most only use one valve. 

 

I love a good set of coil overs. Good stuff Pauly.

Cheers! so keen to ride with these!!!

NO Rock/ NO Roll, go Pauly !

 

What are the spring ratings ?

 

Had a drive of 944 Turbo S yesterday,good kick in the backside in the higher end.

 

Front: 340 lb front

Rear: 285 lb with stock T-bars.  Later on i might do a Tbar delete and put a stiffer spring in. 

 

moving to the dark side yet? ;) should have the m030 on the turbo S but won't be as stiff as your car.

He had KW club sports. next one up from the V3 with higher spring rates and a different body. I would have gotten his but his are for the later cars.

Sorry Arthur, I didn't see this,

Unfortunately i finished up saturday night around midnight on the install. Needs an alignment too. 

 

I'm quite disappointed in not making it. Hopefully i can catch you on another smt if you have the time!! 

 

At the same time of the install, we ran into some issues that took up time. :(
