Just to bring this up to speed this weekend I flipped the the rear spring to the front. I also added some ground control upper camber plates. More on this install process. I will also be giving a full review on the difference. On and off the track.

Just wanted to update this thread for people who would be interested in flipping their KW springs.
Perception: Ride quality is very good. Seems smoother. Steering response is increased( do to the higher spring rates) Articulation has increased, the rear of the car stay's on the ground entering steep driveways, before would pull a tire. Tonight I took one of my favorite roads very twisty tight with some good bumps mid corner. I notice the rear of the car while planted does sway more now with the 1kg lower rate. I'm currently on the out of the box setting for the compression. I will try upping the compression to help combat the chassis sway. The car now feels much less lively very planted and "safer"/easier to drive. It's really hard to tell how the car is going to react on a track other than to just get out there and try it. I will mention that I do plan on ordering some 7kg springs for the rear, and have those ready to go if the car performs poorly on the track. The oversteer tendency has defiantly been subsided I'm just not sure that is a good thing or not yet. Gregg Last edited by jdzumwalt; 01-23-2013 at 01:41 AM. |
