KW coilover conversion

To alter the distribution of roll stiffness more how I wanted it

Ah, Thanks.

I've just got my 2.8 back on the road and find the V1s a wee bit stiff so was thinking of playing with the spring rates. I'll need to get the car up to my work and find out what the axle weights actually are and go from there.

I have the V2's and they are great for road or track. I heard KW fell out with Koni and that's part of the reason why the V2 was dropped as they had Koni dampers.

Interesting - I'd assumed the "60-170" on the springs was the spring rate and coil length.
So what does that "60" or "70" represent then?

Measuring the springs and counting the coils will tell you if they're the same or not.

Potentially, you could cut the longer spring down to increase stiffness but that a bit extreme...

Where did you get them from in the end, Paul?
