Very nice! What's the advantage of going w/ the Z springs, I'm assuming a firmer ride?

I believe they are the same for the Z, coupe, & rwd sedan.

Either the shop I think we both used in West Chester or Zerolift in Fairfield. I may also see if I can do it myself.

I haven't done any suspension work yet but springs are next on my list -- maybe we see if we can organize an OGC install meet?

Coil install was stupid easy as long as you have the tools it should be cake, I suggest an impact gun. The stock struts in the front are a bitch to get out with bare strength

Mmmmm, hardware! Nice.

Does the v3 come with tender springs for the front? Some pics show them while others do not.

Thanks

I didn't see any helper or tender springs but I haven't had the chance to unpack everything yet.

Thanks, will appreciate the update.

What amount of drop do you plan on running? I want to go real mild at about 1-1.25" and am concerned that the spring will be over-preloaded due to the lack of a ride height adjustment on the KW's. That's the only thing holding me back from them really.

Best mod on my car hands down, congrats OP. As far as ride height there's a guy on here running them on a coupe with an 1.25" drop in the front and 1" in the back I believe. I have mine at 25 7/8" fender to ground, with fronts set at 9 and rears at 11 and the ride quality is amazing not harsh yet very tight. You really can't go wrong with these. Night and day from stock
