Hey guys just about to put on a set of KW V3s i ordered from a member here. I was going to leave them whatever they came from the factory, but he said they were adjusted differently. My question is what settings are you guys on that would be closest to stock - a little more firm than stock if I can get any of your input that would be great. Thanks so much

Too late. Decided not to change whatever he had. Coming from sustec pros, kw is amazing. Car feels great

@ noirG do you know what settings he had? I didnt even try to figure out i just test drove and it is stiffer than my tanabes but feels a lot smoother and better. I just threw them on haha

Dang, I wanted to see what you guys were running yours on haha. I'm going to adjust mine soon.

haha thats what I wanted to see. I got these from NoirG but just left them as is. He just said his buddy changed them from the factory, so IDK? Someone on here said he had his at 9 in the rear and 10 up front for the engine weight and he could feel every bump etc., but in a good way.

I never asked him lol, I told my installer to put mine at medium though. Don't forget to post pic of your car when you have a chance Eric.

oh i will ha I washed it after I installed and even washed behind my wheels. It looked great and then started pouring rain of course. I have to adjust the fronts and i'll load up some pics! Im gonna give it another day or 2 in case it needs to settle more but i think its done now

here you go bud,


difference between regular(left) and midnight(right) tails





I still have to lower the front and raise the rear a little and it goes in for alignment then

Nice wheels Eric, are they G2? 19s or 20s? Next mod you should consider getting rear spoiler

ECain18

iTrader: (15)

yeah they are the g2 type II's in 19". I want to do an autokits-x front lip and ipl sideskirts and a rear spoiler and then its pretty much done the way I want it!

Love those wheels.

What thing(s) specifically do you like better about the KW after switching from the Tanabe and comparing the two back to back?

@ BB: thanks bud, I love them too. They are hard to see in pictures(especially my older iphone camera), but they look awesome in person. With the tanabes, they were soft but still bumpier than stocks. Its hard to explain, but with the tanabes, I almost felt like i was going to oversteer in corners, like the back end was going to give out (I have hotchkiss on middle setting in rear). I had no feel or feedback whatsoever from the front wheels. With the KW's, you can feel your front wheels just grip and dig in, if that makes sense. Also, I am at stiffer setting with the KW's than the tanabes, but these still feel smoother in some way. Idk how to really explain it you have to drive someone's G with them on to experience it lol.
