illt3ck Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 What is a preliminary price? What type of spring rates are we looking at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JINSU-POWER Posted April 1, 2005 Author Share Posted April 1, 2005 It all depends on application. here is a link to list of spring rates for current available applications http://www.ksportusa.com/products/ksportkontrolapplications.html Typical Spring rate for subaru application is Frong 7kg / Rear 5kg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobY Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Bring it on... I am shopping between Tien's GP motos and possibly these if the price is right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayne53 Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Height Adjustable? -Tyler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JINSU-POWER Posted April 1, 2005 Author Share Posted April 1, 2005 I can assure you the price will be alot better than any racing suspension out there. The height is adjustble and so is damping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenonk Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 "Adjustable spring perch for height adjustment" That statement makes it sound like it's a one-way adjustable system (a la spring preload). But I am sure there are applications that have spring preload AND ride height adjustable (two-way system). Will this application be a 2-way adjustable system with a single-adjustment for bound/rebound dampening? Keefe Keefe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JINSU-POWER Posted April 1, 2005 Author Share Posted April 1, 2005 yes, they are 2 way height adjustable with a single-adjusment for damping/compression Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenonk Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Good entry level coilover! I hope you guys are keeping the price at $1450 as the other Subaru applications! Keefe Keefe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JINSU-POWER Posted April 1, 2005 Author Share Posted April 1, 2005 the intro price will be lower than $1000 and less if more ppl are seriously commited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobY Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 under 1000!!! Tell me where to send my credit card!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crash Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Is it possible to have a warranty longer than 1 year? What is the expected life of the shock? Who can rebuild them? How much will it cost to rebuild them? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobY Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 If the price stays low I would like to know how to "lock" in my intrest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenonk Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 uh, wow! can't beat that for an entry level coilover!!!!!! If these are a decent set, expect to get 45,000 miles out of them.. they might even last 2 year or more. I am sure you end up shipping the coilovers back the manufacturer for rebuilds.

JINSU-POWER Posted April 1, 2005 Author Share Posted April 1, 2005 1 year limited warranty is the industry standard for coilovers. In order to get in on this please wave both your hands in the air say "I am IN!" and We will probably need $100 deposite from everyone to get the developlment started. Think this is good for everyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JINSU-POWER Posted April 1, 2005 Author Share Posted April 1, 2005 Also the good news is that if it's applicatable, the kit will also come with pillowball mount on all 4 corners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenonk Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Also the good news is that if it's applicatable, the kit will also come with pillowball mount on all 4 corners. I doubt the rear is possible as it's a multi-link suspension. Adjustable lateral links are needed for camber and toe adjustment. The GT doesnt allow for rear upper pillowball mounts in the rear for camber plates. Keefe Keefe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JINSU-POWER Posted April 1, 2005 Author Share Posted April 1, 2005 rebulid shock cost about $100 per shock, Ksport will perform the rebuild new valve and o rings and recharge with nitrogen and oil the shock will last just as long as any other shocks under normal driving condtions for about 4-5 years if not not longer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JINSU-POWER Posted April 1, 2005 Author Share Posted April 1, 2005 Ah, so the rear is also multi link, then in that case as long as there is space the kit will include front pillowball mount if applicable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JINSU-POWER Posted April 1, 2005 Author Share Posted April 1, 2005 Also we willing to offer deep deep discount on the final product if someone is willing to donate or have access to spare suspension parts for blueprint and development. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobY Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 I have been googling these coilovers I have yet to find a negative comment about them. Mazda, Honda, and Nissan guys seem to love them considering the price. They seem to have very very stiff springrates as I have found integra's with 15kg rates with these coilovers. However the springs can be changed. $100 sounds good for a deposit. Do you know how long it may take from commitment to product? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JINSU-POWER Posted April 1, 2005 Author Share Posted April 1, 2005 after we get nessarry parts, the first 3 sets should arrive here in the States after 3 month. Ksport makes sure that all their products is up to competition standard and nothing less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenonk Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 $100 is a really good start for a deposit. Keefe Keefe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JINSU-POWER Posted April 1, 2005 Author Share Posted April 1, 2005 depostie link is up in the first post. get in and lock your inro price! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTCanada Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 I'm interested. Let me get a coffee into me so I can think straight about my options I have STi springs now and, for simplicity, was considering JDM GT or Spec B struts. Looks like this price is going to be about the same as a used GT / Spec B. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
