Better than the KW V3 for DD? Care to elaborate? I may make a switch soon, and hopefully make my way back to the track, but car is still DD for now

Hard to believe it was for me as well. I think because the SRC dampening range is much broader than the KW's; you can make the ride very comfortable (relatively speaking) - despite the near double spring rate.

As do I to the tune of 20k miles a year. Ride can be bumpy when the road goes to crap, but most of time, it's actually not too bad.

surprised to learn that src's have a better ride quality than the v3's. One thing I know about the kw's from experience is that they're bulletproof. Anyone with src's care to comment on longevity, might be time to upgrade.

As far as I recall, maxrev drives his car 3-4days a week. My car is a DD. I would assume that a suspension encounters more abuse from street driving rather than track events. Not sure though.
