Good to hear mate, how easy are they to adjust?

How do these compare to the KW V2s?

My new wheels should be on in a week or so, I'll see how it sits and take it from there...

 

There are the same adjusts that you can do on both; height and the rebound damping. However, yuo can go lower with the V2.
I haven't driven the KW V2, but I've been VERY pleased with the Street Comfort.

Are the adjustments easy to make yourself, or does it require removing them?
...also how do they compare to the standard msport suspension in terms of comfort?

 

The height adjusting:
1) Lift one corner of the car with a jack.
2) Open the little screw that locks the height adjusting ring.
3) Twist the height adjusting ring up or down the amount of how much you like to lift or lower the car.
4) Lock the adjusting ring with the little screw.
5) Lower the jack.
6) Repeat with other struts.
7) Get a 4 wheel alignment done.

Adjusting the rebound damping:
- In front;
1) Open the hood
2) Remove the rubber cover on the top end of the strut.
3) Turn the screw in the top end of the strut to a softer or a stiffer ride.
4) Put the rubber cover back.
5) Close the hood.

- In rear;
1) Open the trunk.
2) Remove the covers on left and right.
3) Remove the noise insulation to find the top end of the strut.
4) Turn the screw to adjust the rebound damping.
5) Put everything back.
6) Close the trunk.

I had a non-sport chassis before and the Street Comfort gives much less bodyroll but is almost as comfortable. I'd guess V2 is pretty close to a OEM sport suspension. You can't go wrong with either and you will not be disappointed, that's for sure.

amazing step by step antti

 

Very informative, thankyou.

Have you got any pics of your car on the kw street comforts?

 

Several!

Here are few:







I haven't lowered my car very much. It could go much lower.

looks good antti

 

Nice! Have you tried it any lower? and how soft do you have the coilovers set to?

...where did you get your rear diffuser?

 

I haven't tried it lower but there are threads in the struts to go at least 1" lower, but I don't want it.
The diffuser is from Schiedmann but I can't recommend it. Some modding had to be done to make it sit nicely.
