Rce t2 or kW v3s what else is needed
 

I'm a complete noob when it comes to suspension setups. I'm looking for a good set of coilovers for mostly street use with some auto cross and possibly track days. If I went with t2s or v3s what supporting mods would I need. Obviously alignment but as far as control arms, top hats camber bolts etc what all is needed/recommended?

Camber bolts are not needed. Front struts are slotted on both and you can achieve almost or right at -2 camber up front with crash bolts. If you want more camber than that, you're going to need tophats in the front. Otherwise, the stockers are great for keeping it quiet.

I'm currently using the V3's and Whiteline LCA's, Whiteline Toe Arms. As far as what's needed? Just the control arms for adjusting rear camber. If you're really hardcore, you can get the bushings on the upper control arms to control camber, but the labor is double the cost of control arms.

That's pretty much where I would start. Then feel how your car drives and go from there. From then you can decide on sway bars, bushings, strut bars, underbody bracing, etc.

I was running just the kwv3 on stock tops and no lca or other suspension mods.

Went great for autox/hpde and the street comfort is tits

But i didnt go very low. So rear camber isnt too bad.

It depends on how low you want to lower. If you plan on lowering your car you will need a means to correct the camber in the rear of the car. Just buy some rear lower control arms when you buy the coils and if you plan on lowering more than just a tad, buy some toe arms as well. For the love of god don't let anyone convince you to buy the whiteline rear upper control arm camber bushings unless you have a means to install them yourself (press and a lot of patience) and have an understanding alignment shop.

Top hats are not needed but are always nice for that sexy castor (raceseng is pricey but ohhh so worth it). You wont need camber bolts because the top strut holes are slotted.

^^^already taken care of haha

As of right now, although I change my mind by the minute, I'm leaning towards v3s with probably whiteline lca's with whiteline toe arms. I've wanted the t2's for a while now but with some of the groupbuys it looks like v3's are quite a bit cheaper.


Now to decide if headers and a tune come before suspension.
