Hey guys!

any of you have any experiance with these guys?

http://www.kamracing.co.uk/

was thinking of ordering some stuff, and just wanted to hear if you have any opinions on them.

thanks!

What you after ?

I'll tell you if it's cheaper elsewhere

[skylaq]

I'm thinking the B14 Bilstein coilover kit.

If you can find it cheaper and they are willing to ship to Norway that would be awesome.

Did you like your spax kit?

[cyclone]

I have the KW kit installed and like it a lot. Think the Bilstein kit has a slightly softer ride than the KW.

[chiefnerd]

So what's the score on the coils- difficulty to fit and price range?

[cyclone]

Fitting is not to hard, same as changing springs on any MacPherson strut FWD car. If you have the tools, time, and experience.

[chiefnerd]

Tools can be borrowed. Just a matter of figuring out if it's a job worth doing myself or letting a garage do it

I have the KW kit installed and like it a lot. Think the Bilstein kit has a slightly softer ride than the KW.

Compared to the original ones, would you say the KW is harder or softer?

I like the original dampers, but I want her to be a wee bit lower.

[cyclone]

Any coilover kit will be much harder than stock. If comfort means a lot and you are mainly looking for a lower stance would suggest you get lowering springs instead. Much cheaper too.

[chiefnerd]

I dunno if I'd want my lower, too many speedbumps about and I like taking them at speed lol.

Need to have a good spy and see how visible the springs are to see whether it's worth maybe spraying them or just getting new ones in a decent colour.

[skylaq]

The comfort means something, but the look means more

I was thinking springs, but then I wont be able to adjust them at all if I have to go over the mountains (will need her to bi higher then).

[cyclone]

Just so you know adjusting isn't all that quick, front easy, pop the tires off and go at it. The backs you normally have to remove the springs to adjust the height. That's not very hard but takes time.

[skylaq]

Cyclone,

thanks for the heads up!
Time is fine, its not like I'm gonna all of a sudden in the middle of my trip try to change the hight

Now I'm just a little worried about my warranty, it will expire if I do change them.

[cyclone]

At a minimum will definitely void the warranty on the suspension and any failure that could be traced back to the suspension.
