Suspension choose help: KW V3 or ST X
hi
Upgrading car suspension, purpose:
1 lowering the car a little bit
2 increase handling for aggressive use on road
3 reduce unnessary body movement of the stock suspension
I tried several brands like teins fz/mono, hks sp, bilstein, aragosta and Kw. Amoung them, Kw is my favorite. It has two features that suprise me.
First it maintains the comfort feeling like the stock suspension. On rough road, the body would stuck to the ground and would not bounce like bilstein/aragosta/hks sp.
Second, the handling is way better the stock. The body movement on the corners act like that of hks sp. Of course Sp are better in the corners but the KW V3 is enough for me.
I dont like adjust the shocks. When the bumpers and compression are set, I would not adjust it. So here is the quesion, for my purpose, is the ST X is enough for me? It is only half the price of the V3 and is much easier to adjust.
The reason I didn‘t brought the KW V1 here is because some say v1 and stx are basically the same except V1 are more durable on several occasions. i live in dry place so the cheaper STX is brought here to compare with V3.
Wish to hear your ideas on this
