D2 Coilovers, The Thread, The Good, The Bad, The Ugly. Put It In Here!


Recommended Posts

Non-the-less, you bring up another obvious benefit of the D2s; the included camber plates for the front struts. These parts could easily be added to the KWs, but then you'd be spending even more, more money on the KWs.

If you already have KWs, how would the BC camber plates fit? The top of the springs are a different diameter.

KW doesn't use a standard spring, but you might be able to swap to a standard spring and then there are a few plate that should work.

So where does one finds D2 at a good price now?

They are 1023 on EBay , and 1200 at a place where John bought his. The place that George suggested JMautoracing has them at 997, which is the cheapest I could find.

I found them cheaper, but felt better ordering from the company I did. The price difference was about $50.

Was that the price you paid too? Somehow i thought that they are 850.

I'm close to 10k miles on mine. Only issue was a blown endlink mount on the driver's side.

Looked at it at a friend's shop and found that I had probably gone for a setting that was too aggressive, especially with the IPD sway in the front. Welded it back on, all's well now.

If the rear is noisy, use the lube that came with the kit. You should have plenty left, use some of it on the spring and where it sits on the perch. It should solve any squeaks.

Great set up for the money. Most of my driving is on an old road here, rolling hills, sweeping curves, blind spots (BBK gets used handily) and the car is a different animal with these.

Yeah I am still getting a clunk in the rear (have a feeling the rubber spring perch boot slipped off). It also sounds like the exhaust is hitting the trailing arms so I need to get under there this weekend.

However, after about 2k miles I am still in love.
