This is where I got mine from:

http://www.motorsportworld.co.uk/

Varient 3 is available but never listed. Florian/ Volflo uses them.

Have you ever been in a Volvo running KW's? Before you shell out your hard earned I'd get a taster first, your more than welcome to have a go in mine. They are a bit extreme!

Thanks for the links, yeah rebrick the C70 I had years ago had the variant 2's on so more than aware of how harsh they are!

However their the only height adjustable coilovers available for the C70's, or they were back then so like the adjustability of them.

[Redbrick]

Oops my bad! :slap:

Of course I remember, beautiful black C70?

[After_Shock]

No probs its been a while, but yeah it was the black C70, was hoping more suspension would have been out by now!

K & W's are fabulous. On a track. On the road they bloody aweful.

Watch out Dave I'm going to sneak up to Brum and stick a set on your C in the middle of the night... ;) :B_steerin

[After_Shock]

I didnt mind mine on the road to be honest but never actually got a chance to try them on a track, if their the only height adjustable stuff then its the only way to go!

[TangoDeltaSierra3]

LEDA do a coilover kit at about £1100.

I only dislike them because they are soo hard that the slightest bump and the whole car jumps into the air. I dont dislike you or your car - I just dont rate the K&Ws. I think that they are far tooo hard. As long as AS is aware that the ride is harsh then let it be. I dont actually care that much.

[madness]

i like my kw's.

aftershock - any carnoisseur can also sell them. and mine were cheaper than
motorsportworld. they dont tell you about the £30 P :jaw: +P

There is a new coilover being developed right now, check volvospeed for details. :bog:

yeah, for 800 USD!

niiioce work greg... i call the second set.

[Babybadger]

I am waiting until after winter and then it will be eibach's and Koni FSD'sall round. I have found the Koni FSD's to be £425 ish all round. Much cheaper than the monroe sensatracks! Can anyone tell me the benefit of coilover setup? Is this the same as standard setup? I am not up with susupension!

[After_Shock]

Anyone got any further info on the LEDA set or the ones on Volvospeed??

[After_Shock]

Cheers madness, not cheap P+P!!

Dave yeah I know their rock solid as had them on the last car, but I only drive on motorways so its not that much of a problem and wouldnt mind doing some track days next year.

[the underlord]

Anyone got any further info on the LEDA set or the ones on Volvospeed??


The Volvospeed Set will be around 800 USD, and the initial set will be made shortly and sent to member 'gdogg16' for testing.

Hopefully the tentative time frame will be spring '06.

Ledas are money, at least they are over hear, they're well over 2k bucks here for the setup. They're really nice though. The coilovers I am having made will be non adjustable but made of high quality materials. They're really nice, they will also be aggresively valved. If these do well, I will have a "race" setup put into production. They are actually going to make me a set of the "race" coilovers with full bound and rebound adjustment after I do the beta testing on the nonadjustables. They will all be able to custom valved as well.

Koni recomends that you not use the FSD's with lowering springs.

I know Don at Kalmar Union sells his own custom made coil over kit as well as the KW kits.

Might be worth giving him a call for prices. :)

[TangoDeltaSierra3]

Kalmar can supply Leda kits at about £1100 i think i was quoted.

[After_Shock]

TDS you got any further info on the LEDA set as im struggling to get anything from the net about them?

I take it their Eibach? Also do you know how much they can lower the car by?

Cheers

[After_Shock]

Had a look on their last night but theirs no mention of heights or anything!

may have to give them a call or drop them an E-mail, look like good kits though, has anyone used them?

[TangoDeltaSierra3]

Ring Kalmar and speak to Don, or mail him, he dont bite despite what you hear!

[Babybadger]

Koni recomends that you not use the FSD's with lowering springs.

Is there any reason why you cant use Koni FSD's with Eibach springs , but you can use monroes with eibach springs?

[aeroresh]

Ive got FSDs and Eibachs on mine and they are fine. I think you must need to use progressively wound springs if FSDs are used. :)
