missed this thred TC, congrats on the new purchase  :smiley: :smiley:

oh and id get laser aligned after a week of fitting as your tyers wont be much different after a week and it leaves for your coils to drop, i paid 80quid for mine to be done, only to find that i had to do it again 2 weeks later  :laugh:

Joe do you know why they need to be re-aligned again. And if this is true why have the 2 or 3 places i have spoke to not mentioned this as they have gone through the fitting process with me with out a mention of this surely it would be in there best interest to tell me this as they can make more money out of the deal.  :undecided:

....Hi TC :smiley: - I've got my AntiLift kit ready and waiting and have just started talking with VWR this morning about my suspension to replace my failing KoniFSD's. We are talking KW too - VWR have a technical partnership with KW direct in Germany which means things can be bespoke rather than off the shelf. Due to their usual racing committments and ordering from KW, it's going to be at least several weeks before my car goes into their workshop but what's being discussed is quite exciting and I don't have any problem with how they work with me. They haven't used the AntiLifts themselves and so are interested how it might all work together.

I'll keep you posted and am very interested to hear your own findings in due course. :afro:

 I have been looking at some racing KW's in a magazine there is a few extra bits on them babies but they cost a small fortune. only a man of your wallet size could afford them.  :wink:

....

Yes, the full-on hardcore racing KW kits do cost a small fortune but we are looking at coming up with a setup which is more appropriate to fast road but still with some adjustability to get it in the sweet spot. How low or not is not a primary concern.

Whichever KW kit - They are renowned for their quality and support so I would say you have made an excellent choice.

Are you also changing your Anti-roll bars?

replace my failing KoniFSD's.
What has happened there?

Are the KW's a move from the variant 1's? Or is it a clubsport version?
