The clunking is from the front, and is either the pillow ball mount needing a better lubrication, or the springs being too preloaded have been known to cause it. The sliding camber bolt I will fix by making a blockoff plate, and eliminating all of the slot, leaving a bolt hole. The stiffness is because KSports were offered in many spring rates, and I really don’t think they were re-valved for each rate. When I ordered 9/7 and an extra set of 5kg/mm, I didn’t receive the extra springs, and couldn’t revert to what the coilovers were supposedly valved for (7/5). I also put a mere 20 miles on my car with the KSports due to the camber issue, so some of the bounce and harshness *might* go away. The 1-year warranty associated with them is a joke, because KSport USA’s website lists the address the same as TrixRacing, who has up and left dozens of people on NICO without cash or coils.

Wow...utter crap? Don't you think that's a bit harsh for only driving on them for 20 miles? When I first installed the Ksports, they were REALLY bumpy! After they settled, i think the ride is much better. Also, it's unfortunate that you've had in installation problem with your coilovers. HOwever, I haven't had a problem whatsover. I can't argue with you about Trixracing however. They are by far the worst company i've dealt with. In the end I'm very happy with my purchase of Ksports and I'm sick of reading people bashing the product. Especially after 20 miles ??
No matter how much hate there is for the D2/Ksports (Especially those people who have never drove with them), it's a good product. Especially for the price. Even if your set was defective (which i doubt
) how can you call the whole line utter crap?
