KW coilovers... any good?
MY02 WRX:
Need a suspension upgrade and I've ruled out Tein as I've been advised they are too harsh for road use even on softest setting.
Eibach Pro Street Coilovers are an option, but just wondering if anyone knows about KW coilovers?
Are they going to be the same bone rattling ride as Teins or are they ok for road use with a more comfortable ride like the Eibachs?

hi there, I have KW V1 it runs ok, but I like the car really low and because of that the front wheels rub a little in the front inner fenders when I drive hard... hope to get this fixed with 22mm arbs...

Hi mate
We have a special on the Eibach Pro Street Coilovers for the 01-02 WRX at the moment.
The are reduced from the RRP of £799.00 to a very respectable £399.00!!

The Eibach kits are height adjustable from 30mm lowered to approx 60mm.
The dampers and springs are 20% uprated from the original items so the ride is not too harsh which is ideal for road use and the occasional track session.

No probs mate
We have used the Eibach kit on the track a good few times when fitted to our '04 WRX Wagon with good results.
However if it was the KW kit you were after we have just become a dealer for their products so could sort you out with a kit at a good price.

to be honest ideally im after a second hand set, as the budget is very tight, unless you want to sponsor me for the time attack series

After speaking with the guys down at Revolution I snapped up a set of these Eibachs... just arrived today and look the business! 
Couldnt be happier!
My friend has them on his car and swears by them having tried other makes such as Tein on previous Scooys of his and saying they were too hard-a-ride even on the softest setting!
Revolution are doing these at a great price - go anywhere else and you wont pay much less than £800!!!
Many thanks to Keith & Colin @ Revolution
