need advise, anyone with KW v3 near west-LA or sherman oaks?

martin82 · 01-04-2012, 07:59 PM

Looking to get kw v3's but would like to get an idea and if possible a ride to compare since I daily drive. I track the car a few times a year at willowsprings and buttonwillow.

Took the car stock a few weeks back to willowsprings and the rear was a bit to soft........

...you want someone to give you a ride on the track at willow to figure out if you want the v3s?

clarify?

martin82 · 01-04-2012, 08:53 PM

lol I found a like a fob, didn't pay much attention when I posted the thread. Edited!

you may get some hits this weekend if you show up at the monthly meet, quite a few of us are on kw v3s

xdeslitx · 01-05-2012, 12:37 PM

a ride from someone won't do you any good since everyone who has V3s has different setups im assuming.

just get them! lol

well most of us are on medium to stiff setting, so it still maybe worth his while.

he should try trip's car. i hear the braking is awesome on that thing too!

Yeah, just show up this Saturday, SoCal - Centrally Located Monthly Meet, there are numbers of Z's with KW V3. Some of us have it with the sway bars so corninging will not be the same as just KW V3 installed.

xdeslitx · 01-05-2012, 02:37 PM

i think most of us have sways...you, phelan, and I do at least

xdeslitx · 01-05-2012, 03:36 PM

FYI...my car is a daily driver and the only time I'm bother is going from the 2 South to the 5 South because the road there is VERY bumpy

While you're there, make sure to checkout Trip's brakes.

They stop on a dime!!

if you got the coin I would just go for it.. You wont be disappointed trust me. Especially if you go to the track..

martin82 · 01-05-2012, 08:27 PM

Looks like i'll put them on order, now just gotta find a place near me to get them installed, thoughts? Supposedly my friend told me he can get it for $1450.......... I'll make sure they are the v3's.

Any idea on install cost? Would like to get corner balanced as well.

Talk to lou @ amplified motorsports. Theyre in monterey park

Lou will hook you up on the installation. Alignment and corner balance would start at 250. I got mine done at West End alignment.
