A bit off topic, but what's the main differences between V2 and V3? Obviously, V3 is a bit more track oriented than V2, but yeah, what are your/anyone's thoughts between those two?

Cheers

v2 only allows for rebound adjustment. v3 allows for adjustment of both rebound and compression dampening. aside from allowing for better tuning for track setup (traction-wise) the difference in compression (high speed and low speed) allows for a very comfortable street setup. (this is my newB explanation) - I'm sure others will have more to say...

From KW's site re the v3s:
The new Variant 3 is state-of-the-art technology for the skilled and experienced driver. The separate and independent compression and rebound damping options allow a truly individual driving set-up. These unique systems with the 3 individually adjustable components, allows for adjustment of the compression of the damper in the low-speed range, while the highspeed set-up, so decisive for driving comfort, has been preset by our engineers

The price of the kw variant 3's are only $150 less than what they are new, just pm some dealers. I think that suspension that you thought might be damaged should be a hell of a lot less...

Didn't realize these were selling so cheap... Guess I over paid initially... Will let set with camber plates go for $1650. Coilovers alone for $1350.

Didn't realize price was so cheap? Still going for $1960 on ebay and see same prices quoted elsewhere... but will take your word for it... Regardless, price has been dropped.
