Ktec coilovers

[stuartymcv]

Hi guys i recently fitted eibach prolines bt i am not happy with how the rear of the car sits . I looked at coilovers bt there a bit pricey but ktec have a coilover kit wit alloy topmounts for a pretty resoanable amount does anyone have them fitted and are they any good ?

The Boosh on here does, he seems to rate them, I am considering them, they seem very good value for a coilover kit with top mounts.

i have got the KTR coilover + topmounts on mine, i use the car everyday and rate them highly, really worth the money... make sure you get them set-up for getting the best out of them!

This to be honest. I have them too (minus the mounts) and for the ££ I can't fault them.

Oh and don't forget this too.

Well worth it.

You will get some track warriors come along and tell you they will be w**k for £300 but they are honestly pretty decent IMO!

Reports say there ok! As you wouldnt expect, they aint going to be as good as 1K items, but a lot of the time you pay for the name!!

Get it sorted!

K-TEC says:

The spec of our kit is very similar to that of the FK kit and the KW V1.

Get them bought, and if your not happy with the ride after a few months, then sell them on, they'll get snapped up on here for sure.

 

[The Boosh!]

Nothing wrong with the ride. It isn't soft but its not overly hard either. Perfect for road use!

 

[timmyd]

I didnt mean there was anything wrong with the ride, not driven a 182 with ktec suspension. The way the car drives and handles is a personal thing, so may be fine for you and me but not for someone else.

 

[The Boosh!]

Fair comment! ( I wasn't having a dig, just my personal opinion on them )

 

[timmyd]

Thats a fair point, they seem to be a very good kit for the money and get good reviews.
I was going to get them, but Ktec got me some H&R coilovers at a very good price. Didnt want to get the ktec coilies and regret it,have always wanted H&R's, so will try out the H&R and try to get a ride in a 1*2 with Ktec coilies.

They're alright, they piss me off though because I want a soft ride haha.

Amazing 'Bang for Buck' if you ask me, if it's just for road use they're great.

 

[Tigger]

Loving the comments on the K-Tec coilies - I took advantage of the top-mount package, will be getting them on very soon

You should talk to him, or dump & move on if you want my advice

Thanks for the advice on this guys but they will have to wait a wee bit gt the 5yr service due next month so the cashflow is a bit tight but will defo be investing in this will be 95% road use . With a trackday here an there .
