Coilovers Finally Ordered

[looch]

After what seems like an eternity, Ive finally took the plunge and ordered a set of KW Variant 3 Coilovers for the Vee. I expect them to arrive in about 10 days or so, then Ill get them fitted. Ill do a write up for the Knowledge base for fitting the kit along with photos.

Any current owners, does the kit come with recommended settings? any advice on that side of things?

Ill be getting the vee a full 4 wheel alignment following the installation.

Very excited [smilie=yay.gif]

OH YES :bow:

You can fit them yourself Wayne, quite easy but wheel geometry is a must post fitting.

I took mine to Demon Tweeks and cost £90 but the best £90 i have ever spent :approve:

Aren't Demon Tweeks based in Wrexham Mossy? Bit of a drive! What made you go there? I am going to get a full 4 wheel alignment done but thats a bit far for me.

Anyone got any recommendations?

Very jealous about the coilovers Wayne :bow:

or Mick Gardner Racing In Barnsley, who is an Ohlins specialist Russ who owns it is a fellow Ph1 Vee owner. he did a 4 wheel alignment on my last Exige.

Don't let him talk you into buying some Ohlins for your Vee unless you have some very deep pockets!

Russ posts in here, think his username is russmgr or something.

[looch]

£1473 at Venom Motorsport....not sure the price now fella :approve:

Single best mod I've made, go kart vee [cmilie=iconcheers.gif]

 

[looch]

Just checked venom now coming in at £1629

The price changes so frequently...if you can get em for that price Colin I'd grab em pal before they go up again...

 

[ColinG]

Yeah I assume it's the euro changing all the time that governs the price..

Cheers mate!
