Raceseng | KW + Raceseng Coilover Package

The KW Variant 3 + CasCam + Shock Top is a custom crafted solution for the street and track enthusiast looking for the ultimate in suspension tuning and geometry adjustability. The standard KW Variant 3 coilovers require you to re-use your non-adjustable OEM top mounts. Raceseng solves this by offering an integrated coilover system comprised of the KW Variant 3 coilovers with our front caster + camber plates and rear top mounts that increase shock travel.

KW Variant 3 + CasCam + Shock Top - Toyota GT86 / Scion FR-S / Subaru BRZ | 2013+
Available Now | $3,240.00

http://www.raceseng.com/kw-variant-3...ubaru-brz-2013




KW VARIANT 3 FEATURES :
The coilover system is ideally suited for the FR-S and BRZ owner who wants a pleasurable street driving experience with the ability to do some serious track or autocross racing.
Read More >
> Damping technology with individually adjustable rebound and compression
> Adjustment range of 12 different settings for rebound control
> Adjustment range of 16 different settings for compression control
> Highly corrosion resistant "inox" plating
> Single height adjustable for lowering ride height
> High quality components, materials and finishes for long lasting durablity
> Complete documentation for an easy setup

KW VARIANT 3 SPECS :
> 0.8 - 2.0 (20-50mm) Front Lowering
> 0.8 - 2.0 (20-50mm) Rear Lowering
> 230 Front - 285 Rear Spring Rates





CASCAM FEATURES :
The Raceseng CasCam system offers independently adjustable caster and/or camber to tune your front suspension geometry. Our custom spring perches feature a sealed angular contact radial bearing to remove rotational loads from being transmitted to the sphercial bearing, resulting in noise free operation and smoother steering response.
Read More >
> -4.5° of negative camber gain and +1° of positive camber
> 1° of positive caster gain or a total of 7° of positive caster




SHOCK TOP FEATURES :
When lowering your ride height with the KW coilovers, you are also reducing shock travel. The Raceseng Shock Top resolves this issue by extending the KW coilover shaft mounting point up into the chassis, giving you 2 inches of extra rear shock travel.

You need to double check the spring rates on your KWs. They have not sold V3s with 343/400 lbs/in spring rates in a while.

The correct spring rates are 230/285 and judging from the pics on your website, that's what you have. I can see the marking on the rear spring.

Most shops are still advertising the wrong spring rates and that bothers me since it misleads customers, but you just need to look at the springs...

And I did not mean any disrespect...I wish KW updated their dealers with the spring rate change instead of doing it quietly. But the spring rates are marked on the springs.

Your camber plates are awesome. EDIT: I'll PM you later.

Do these only work with the KW V3? Would they work with the ST Suspension coilovers?

Absolutely NO disrespect taken Andrew, I greatly appreciate you clarifying. Thank you!

I would love to have RCE offer our top mounts, let's get in touch!

Sounds great Andrew. We sell a fair amount of front and rear top mounts for RCE coil overs. It's a no brainer to partner up! I look forward to hearing from you.
