This won't start off as a full review as I have only had the suspension for 2 days now and I haven't gotten out on the track or auto-x course yet.
I decided to go with the KW Streets from Robispec after hearing about their success on this forum. I finally pulled the trigger on Monday the 11th. I emailed back and forth with Scott who was very professional and easy to work with and we got the coilovers sent from Germany, front roll center kit, rear bump steer kit and rear sway bar came from California.
Everything arrived by Tuesday the following week and lucky for me Robi was going to be in town so he offered to do my install himself. Tuesday night about 7pm I met Robi at ICSPerformance in Stamford, CT. I hung out, talked with Robi and Al for a while and before I knew it the install was done. Robi has this install down to a science and he was very efficient and thorough. I was really impressed by his knowledge and experiences and it was very entertaining listening to his track stories :D .
Before I left I took the car out for a quick spin around stamford and the car is just night and day different. I thought it handled well stock but after that first drive I realized what I was missing. The car is much more responsive and seems to know what you are thinking even better, it also seems give you much better communication with the road. The car handles so much better and actually feels faster as a result.
I am not on the track every weekend so unfortunately I won't have any statistical before and after comparisons to give but I am sure they are out there. Robi is the man and if you are looking to do any suspension work I highly suggest you contact Robispec to get set up!
Thanks again Scott and Robi!!
