Your talk of settling for parts is literally most of what I've done to my FRS for my almost 4 years of ownership and now I'm trying to undo it all and get it right this time 😂
I really don't understand why anyone thinks they can spend substantially less than factory for suspension and think they're improving performance. I wouldn't buy coilovers cheaper than $1,500 if they were non-adjustable let alone spending less than that for adjustable coilovers. I got the RCE Tarmac Zero coilovers on my STI which were $1,800 at the time. They're fantastic. If I wanted something adjustable, I'd step up to the Tarmac 2 for $2,700, and then I'd get them shock dyno'd so I know which settings on each actually match.
If cars have taught me one thing it’s you ALWAYS get you pay for, it’s sad but the honest truth of life. Thank you Kev for teaching the masses. I always preach waiting and saving instead of wasting
youre spot on the RCE dampers. im on ohlins and rode on my buddies RCE T2 and they feel very similar and comfortable and handle bumps super good on track!
I personally wen KW v3s last year and it's night and day compared to other cheaper entry level to even cheaper mid level coilovers. I tell people nowadays to SPEND THE EXTRA on a quality set of coilovers like the KW. You're going to be MUCH happier every time you hop in your car and drive. Even drove mine in the winter and when it came time to replace the springs with stiffer rates, the collars moved very easy.
@taleent4700 I have an frs. Which uses a lot of the same parts aftermarket wise, many are interchangeable. I had bought the eibach set. And I had a purple set on my car when I got my second frs. I have no idea as to what they were as they were unmarked and came installed already. But both sets made the car handle more loose feeling. I got the kw coilovers which made the car feel like stock, but allowed me to lower it as much as I wanted. I had to get other suspension parts as well though to get the alignment close to stock. Have a slight bit of camber, I think -1.5 degrees in the rear. And the front is within oem spec.
Bought my FactionFab FL Spec V2 mainly because of your video in regards to how happy you were with your set of F series at the time! I don't think they're horrible by any means for the money, but I can't lie and say I wouldn't love a set of RCE's myself!
For $2,400 I can afford these for my E46 M3. Huge bang for buck T XTA plus 3 COILOVERS The ST XTA plus 3 coilover kit gives your car maximum performance for the road and the tools you need for any challenge. From the factory, the ST XTA plus 3 coilover kit is equipped with KW dampers that are adjustable in HIGH AND LOW-speed compression!!!! ... as well as adjustable rebound damping. With 24 clicks of adjustment for each, high speed and low speed compression damping and 18 clicks of rebound adjustment, your suspension knows no limits. It doesn’t matter if you bolt in an aftermarket roll cage, weld in a cage, upgrade to spherical bushings or changed wheel loads - the ST XTA plus 3 coilover has what it takes to keep your car dialed! Of course, the ST XTA plus 3 also includes a parts approval certificate, race springs and solid aluminum uniball top mounts (with adjustment when necessary).
Never heard of race comp and now I want these. Sound really good, I was planing on fortune autos cause kw was too pricey but kw helped make this and you plus so many other people say it’s a great daily driving coilover. So now I gotta sink my money into this. And thanks for making a coilover review like this, I’ve seen so many that just say the coilover is great and they don’t compare. Like so many people say teins are great but I don’t trust that. Glad you experienced both worlds of good and bad, this is what I’ve been looking for.
If you're looking for something cheaper, check out ST Suspension. It's owned by KW Suspension so all their technology is also found on ST coilovers. They use cheaper materials to build ST coilovers (like galvanized steel bodies instead of stainless bodies like KWs) but the quality will be the same.
Nice review man! Im still currently on $500 Racelands on the GR86, but I do plan on RCE or HKS coilovers in the future. Surprisingly the Racelands do offer camber adjustment, but dont have dampening adjustment 😅
Kevin, I know this is a long shot but where can I find the template cut outs for rain guards? eos support was no help. Also love the tire and wheel setup
I was in between these and the bc racing, and the price was really attractive. But I'm glad i went with bc, especially after watching this. Thanks for the honesty bro.
If you arent going to track and just want cosmetics, just get lowering springs. They will look just as good and handle better than cheap junk coils. If you actually intend to do some real performance driving, coils are well worth it. Also, Tein makes really great stuff for really great prices. Just sayin
Also need to keep in mind that if you stick with the OEM struts you won't be able to fit some of the wider more aggressive wheel setups due to clearance issues.
Great video Kevin. How are these Racecomp Engineering Superstreet 2 compared to KW V3? or even Ohlins Road and track? I know the Ohlins you have to paid for the top hats.
I have a 2019 Wrx and it’s a daily but I want to take it to the track occasionally during the year. I’m looking for a good set of coilovers that can do street and track duties well. I’m deciding between RCE SS1 or SS2, FA500, Ohlins R&T and KW V1. I’d like some help deciding between them. I don’t mind paying a bit extra for better performance but not too much.
@@joshfetty same level of excellent customer service, slightly different pros and cons, spring rates are the same, internal bump stops are nicer, having rear mounts is nice, multi peice shock body is obviously a con, but all and all cant go wrong with either imo
Im trying to have a very similar fitment with a 18x9.5 +43 TE37s and 255/35s. So far I have the exact same set of coils and Cusco RUCA. Do you think I'll need RLCA too?
Its Jose, I just ordered Ce28s plus with those exact specs. Are having to do any fender modifications with your particular ride height and camber settings? If so what are your rear camber settings? And did you purchase the RUCA? I went ahead and purchased the RUCA. My eta is March for the Ce28s, trying to iron out any issues ahead of time. Also, how have the top hats and spherical bushing for the front and rear effected NVH for daily?
so, Cygnus X-1 Performance coilovers over the Fortune Auto 500s they are based on. check. and just think, 6 months from "now", Koni is going to give you their new coilover...amazing.
Tein should be the entry point for every buyer, they are amazing coilover for how very little the cost in comparison. I guess its that cheap packaging they do lol
Getting the Cusco Sport Street Zero A Twin-Tube 40Way for a little over $1300 with top hat camber adustability. Trusted Japanese quality for a decent price.
With the new setup, do you still need the spacers to fix the rubbing issues? I’m in the process of figuring out my wheel fitment on my GR86. I want to run 18x9.5 +45 Advan RG-4’s with a 255 tire. I’ll probably need to get RLCA or RUCA like yours. Keep up the great content! You’ve been a great resource for a fellow Track bRed GR owner!
Hey Kevin, enjoying all the content . I am thinking of putting the STI lowering springs on my brz with the stock coils just for a while until I save money. As long as I install aftermarket rear lower control arms and camber bolts in the front, do you think I should be able to get a few degrees of camber adjustment front and rear ?
I had sti springs and Bilstein dampers on a Gen 1 BRZ. I loved them, but they’re def stiff. I would say, save your money and get a quality set of coilovers
i ordered a 2024 premium model with the performance package with SACHS dampers, if i wanted to lower my car could i do it with those or would i have to get the superstreet 1's? still confused on the whole lowering thing
Where's a good price point on a more budget friendly build? I'm not cheaping out cuz I don't wanna break my car before warranty is up. So any recommendations on coilovers n a good price range? And yes. I would like it more track friendly. I don't go often nowadays, but I'd like to in the near future and I want to be set up for when I do.
Any recommendations for staying really close to stock height? I let someone drive my car and they broke my front lip and nearly ripped off my bumper lol. Big pothole in a parking lot. I was thinking fortune auto.
@MarioK4rt well it will only lower your vehicle depending on the lowering springs you buy. You could also just run your oem springs for oem hight but get the extra comfort and performance of the upgraded struts.
Installing the Ohlins on my gr86 made me incredibly sad and the adjustment knobs are finky and feel cheap that’s all I’m gonna say. Would’ve rather gotten the hks hipermax r’s😔
Had KW V1's on the e92 that was traded in on my neptune 86. Once hit a pot hole so bad that I snapped a half axel, but the KW didn't blow. Their stuff is bomb proof, I'm convinced. Thanks for turning me on to these
Kevin, what are your thoughts on the Tein Flex Z? I have them on my 2013 BRZ and while they feel comfortable I can’t seem to nail down the source of clunking noises.
Did you buy them used? If they’re used then I wouldn’t blame the coilover I’d blame the previous owner. If they’re new then the only issue I’ve seen is maybe your ride height is too low?
@@joshfetty I bought them new and stayed close to out of the box height. I’ve gone through everything I can think of as far as ensuring things are torqued go spec, including the sway bar end links
😐😐😐😐 I just had some Factionfab FL specs put on my WRX. Now I'm not sure if I want to feel how more expensive coilovers feel because these definitely aren't bad, better than stock lol
I had lowering D2 springs and trueheart shocks on my car. IT WAS HORRIBLE. Screw cheap brands. I now have K sports which are like a mid tier brand. And they're so much better. It handles better, rides better, and makes way less noise. NEVER CHEAP OUT ON YOUR CAR! IT WILL COME BACK TO BITE YOU
@Kevinvo be real with me, are ISC coilovers entry level? I have the N1 street sports and they are bouncy and stiff and tbh after a year I hate them. I really wished I bought B6 Beilstiens and got 1-1.5 inch lowering springs.
I haven't personally tried them, but anything around that $1000 usually will give you mediocre results. That's the point where I'd say just spend a few hundred bucks more.
The "right" alignment specs comes down to what you're using the car for. For most people that are just daily driving the car you won't want anything too aggressive, -1.5 to -2.5 degrees, but if you're tracking the car you'll want even more to activate more grip. Thanks for watching!
dont underestimate a good shock and lowering spring. Idk I set it and forget it so I got Koni STR.T and Eibach Sportlines on a 323 and they were the tits.
Can definitely put together a good package if you pickup the right parts. Most people don't want to deal with the process of piecing everything together though.

It's like getting out of a bad relationship 😅

Very useful comparison
Im considering getting a used 2006/2007 Caymen but I blv it will cost a lot to maintain an old car
Yeah I did faction fab on my 2015 sti and it ruined the drive for me, I ended up selling the car and the coil overs were a big part of the reason why

As you said, quality hardware is super important!
How can I know that I have adjusted the right camber?
And thanks for saving $800 on our behalf 🙏🏼
Get it aligned. Imo a great camber angle is -2 fronts to -2.5 degrees rear.
The "right" alignment specs comes down to what you're using the car for. For most people that are just daily driving the car you won't want anything too aggressive, -1.5 to -2.5 degrees, but if you're tracking the car you'll want even more to activate more grip. Thanks for watching!
