Default Ksport Coilovers

Hey guys,

I met with Ksport this afternoon to discuss new products. They asked me to see if there are any xD customers that might be interested in the Kontrol Pro coilover system. I told them that I would do my best to find out.

Is there anyone that would be interested in a coilover solution for the xD? Maybe someone who is looking for more adjust ability and performance when it comes to their suspension?

Nothing is set in stone. I am just trying to get an idea.

Cheers!

This is what they would be:

Kontrol Pro Damper System
Ksport Kontrol Pro Fully Adjustable Coilover Kits provide the ultimate in suspension technology for your street or track car. 36 levels of dampening adjustment allow you to fine tune the ride to your handling and comfort needs. The dampening adjusts compression and rebound simultaneously for ease of adjustment. Pillow ball top mounts in the front and rear on some applications allow you to maintain vehicle manufacturer suspension geometry design. The pillow ball top mounts also allow you a more direct feel for solid driver response. Camber adjustability is included on pillow ball top mounts that allow it for the ability to adjust camber from the actual coilover, instead of a separate camber kit.

Most applications utilize an adjustable lower mount, which means you adjust height without losing suspension travel like some other coilover designs do. With the mounts and most pieces of the coilover being designed for 6061 billet aluminum the kit is lightweight, durable, and rust resistant. The steel shock body is electroplated with zinc to resist rust and the elements. The valving of each set is matched to the springs installed for unmatched ride quality and reliability.

The Ksport system uses a Monotube design in which the oil and gas are separated within the cylinder. When compared to twin tube designs the Monotube dissipates heat better, allows finer dampening adjustments, and requires more expensive design process. Aeration and cavatation are a lot less common in a Monotube design, which results in a better ride.

The Ksport Kontrol Pro Coilover kit has been designed with professional road racing in mind offering extremely high value and performance.

I can work with them, I work in Tempe and am in Mesa often. They also know my friends over at Intensepower. Just have them contact me, or give me the number.

Thanks for your help Jeremy. But, I can take it from here.

ChelsDS- No you dont have to be in AZ. I am contemplating working with Ksport for a special production run for the xD. I thought that I would get a good feel for the interest before I make the order.

OK round two.

I apologize for the delay. The first run only interested 3 members. I need a couple more people to join up on the pre order.

Please email me at sales@nurspec.com to have your name added to the list.

I don't get it. Doesn't K sport already have a coilover set in the market for the Yaris?

The xD kit should be the same. Maybe a spring swap at the most, to make up for the smal weight difference.


Tein Coilovers are exactly the same for the Yaris and for the xD.

I say it's just a matter of test fit a Yaris set on the xD. The Ksports for the Yaris, are already quite stiff so I doubt anyone would want a higher spring rate unless off course for specific Track Use.

It should bbe quite easy for Ksport to put their kit to the market.
