Did you get any answers as to if these are any good? I know they are brilliant on VW's and Audi's but not sure how they compare to other coilivers for the Subaru...

Frayz has these!

I am still trying to decide if I go with these or Ohlins

Mr Blobby 02 May 2013 07:18 PM

He has the version 3 coilivers not the club sport if I remember correctly.
They will be a decent set of coilivers just no idea what they are like to other brands...

I've tried only KW V3 and they're been awesome on friend car,but if its no money object Nitron 2 way or 3 way will be my choice

I have the remote reservoir V3's and they're a superb damper. Beautifully built and very compliant on undulating roads. The clubsports come with top mounts too.
You get what you pay for when it comes to suspension and I think short of a set of £4k Ohlins, the KWs are absolutely superb.

Hello frayz, do you use the standard top mounts on your v3?

Thanks

frayz 05 May 2013 03:07 PM

I use Noltec Race topmounts :)

Sti Addict 07 May 2013 03:47 PM

Thanks Frayz, I was wondering if you would know how they compare to bc's?

I had bc's on a previous car, and always regretted it, I had a feeling I shoud have gone for the kw instead.

BC's are poor in comparison to KWs and Bilsteins

JamesDundee 08 May 2013 12:16 PM

Is there a large difference in price?

Yep the Bilsteins and KWs will be nearly double the price but quality does not come cheap :thumb:

Sti Addict 08 May 2013 05:01 PM

This time round I will definately be getting KW's, I knew the BC's were cheap for a reason but didnt realise just how bad they were going to be.

Very nice!!

Are they the B16's? Would you give us a review after you have fitted them? :)

Also, I was told by a few garages Whiteline dont make top mounts anymore?? Are they new?

Yes they are, hopefully collecting the car this weekend so will review once I have a thorough drive in the car.

They have been discontinued by whiteline but Alyn @ AS Performance has a few sets left and I purchased them from him :thumb:
