I know i sound like a newb but I'm wondering if going with aftermarket coilovers affect PSM on our cars?
#18
I wonder if any sponsors carry the K-Sports...

Vivid Racing is listed on the KSport website as a distributor. I think they are about a mile away from each other.

TITAN MOTORSPORTS has them too..

K-Sport /D2 are budget low end items.
Wouldn't consider fitting them onto my 996TT or even my Impreza for that matter.

I can understand not buying something because of quality, but don't buy something because it is a "budgeted high end item". Most of the time you can safely assume that you will get what you are paying for. But at the same time some item's prices are not always a direct indicator of quality as much as market demand. It is even easier to see that the prices on the K-sport coilovers are cheaper because they are largely seen as "budget low end items" in the Porsche community. Do you think that each set of Moton coilovers costs the company anywhere near what they charge? Moton is selling not only a great product, but a great reputation. Additionally they price their products largely based on demand and the good ole' fashion free market. K-sport hasn't been around very long and does not have much of a reputation. I think trying these out is the only way to determine quality.

K-Sport Suspension having been trying for quite a while to secure a dealer here in the UK without any success.
I've seen the products first hand, having worked in the industry and am always keen on value.

I don't know anyone racing with K-sport coilovers and are competitive. They have to be proven to be on my cars.
#26
Has anyone here ever have experience with K-sport coilovers? The MSRP is at $1600 but i'm sure you can get them cheaper.

I'm also wondering if these will have problems with PSM...

i found them on ebay for 1k but as you say " you get what you pay for". You can look around I believe GMG racing has a good price on the pss9's $1995. i think that's a pretty good price. Also bimmerparts.com via ebay has pss10's for 2350 shipped free. If you look you will find it, wish that stuff was in my budget now.

I have the JIC's...but I heard they are all new....no issues here in 20k miles and lots of fun driving. When I was looking, people told me to avoid the K's...this is 2 years ago. I don't know about the current crop.
Very adjustable. I got control arms, links, and sways in a huge package. You really need to do that and a corner if you want to do it "right" for these cars imho.

Hey Kevganzon,
Do you have a thread showing off your new 996TT? I'd love to see it. Congratulations old buddy.
