The spring size is 6" in length and 2.5" diameter. Works with any KW coilovers. 10kg/10kg with a Saner bar = proven combo for track duty.

The clubsport springs are, the base are not.

I was wondering, what would be the maximum spring rates for the valving on a kw v3?

i've spoken to billy johnson about it, i don't want to publicly post his findings since he did work hard on it to find the right spring rates. i recommend sending him a pm about the springs

I did the testing with him, the stiffest you want to use is a 628lb spring on a Kwv3. If they weren't publicly posted on S2ki already I would have him send Billy a PM too but the findings are pretty much all over R&C.

Huh, that kinda sucks, I was under the impression that the kw V3s were 10k springs all around.

hmm, this makes me think.

When i sent my kwv3 to get rebuild, i was told they were 10k all around. I bought my v3's 2yrs ago and I believe there is 2 newer versions since then.
