Hey PNW folks!

I finally got my KW V3s installed today. They had been sitting in my office for a couple of weeks due to various delays and a backlog at the shop.

Thankfully, I think I'm pretty much done with this car's changes. And for me, the setup is just about perfect.

I'm very happy with the ride height so far. We'll see how they look when they settle in. Currently the car is sitting at 25-3/8 inches in front and 25-1/2 inches in back. The target height is 25-1/4 inches all the way around.

The "original" height when the car went in for the swap was 26-5/16 inches in front and 26-1/4 inches in back, measured from the ground to the top of the wheel well.

The resulting ride itself is stable and VERY smooth. Adjustments for rebound and bump were set to the midpoint for each range. I have not really tested the performance significantly. Hopefully I'll get a chance to do that in the coming months.

The installing shop was Speedware Motorsports in Redmond, WA. Thank you to Colin at Speedware for his careful installation, laser alignment and corner balance.

Hey folks, maybe I'll see ya'll down at Burien. Have a great summer!

Here are a few photos:

Adam Greenberg snapped a couple of pictures of my ride on the alignment rack. I've posted them at my site. Tomorrow I'm going to snap a photo up under my wheel well of the KW V3 and post that with my modification photos.
