I am interested in purchasing a set of these coil overs.<p>1.which stage has the adjustable dampening?<p>2.What is the street price<p>3.how does it ride?<p>4.how do you adjust dampening? Ride height?<p>all i know about these units is that they use Koni sturts.<p>here is a link for their german site

I installed the KW varaint 1's, which don't have the adjustable dampening. The variant 2's are the ones with adjustable dampening. Both are a threaded coilover making them ride height adjustable<p>I paid $1400 for the variant 1's. The variant 2's are more. How much? I don't know. I know a shop that will match the price of H&R's.<p>My personal opinion, they ride perfect. I have a 98.5 w/ sport suspension and they ride a touch firmer that stock. The real differnce is when you throw the car through a corner, it stays very flat. The suspension also soaks up bumps very well. I live in LA and you can catch air on the freeways if your suspension is to stiff.<p>I know it would be impossible to adjust the dampening from the top of the strut while the strut is still in the car. So I don't know how you do it. Adjusting ride height is similar to any coilover, you spin the shock perch either up or down on the shock body to your desired height. I don't know about other coilovers, but I know that the ride quality is almost the same whether your all the down or all the way up.<p>If you have any question e-mail me<p>andy

i am really upset with sites such as koni and eibach which give u only the barest of info: no spring rate info, adjustment range, damping factor, etc. Just "it drops the car 2IN COOL!" NOT. <p>This site looks as though it goes into detail on the assembly construction, etc.<p>My concern is the shipping cost from there to Canada, and how do u get service and satisfaction. <p>Any importers in USA/CANADA?<p>1996 a42.8 qm<br>

I'd like to see that one. Besides, from my experiences in riding around in dumped hondas/acuras on the LA freeways, the main issue isn't about catching air - it's usually<p>1.)about avoiding bottoming out the suspension/chassis/body on the ground, or<p>2.)avoiding hitting your head on the ceiling when you hit the aforementioned bumps. <p>:)<p>Edmund Louie<br>98 A4Q 30V

is your paper done yet? :-)<p>Steve S.<br>97 2.8QM<p>P.S. To the other...Edmund's got a paper due...he shouldn't be on the forum right now...

It's all written in my head. . . i just need to find the right protocol to connect it with my fingers, so i can get it in the computer, and hence, out the printer, and on the paper. Sounds like a lotta bureaucracy going on huh? <p>THAT'S WHY IT'S BEEN TAKING SO LONG!!! =)<p>Edmund Louie<br>98 A4Q 30V - still posting!
