KW V3 G8X Availability?

jmg · 04-20-2022, 12:37 PM

The KW V3 is mentioned on the KW site here but not officially on sale yet as only the V4 and HAS are on the products page.

The first I read about it was in this April 11th RPM article, but I haven't heard anything since.

Any have any updates on their availability?

I’ve been waiting for some coilovers for the xdrive. No news on these coilovers or the ddc anyone?

Still waiting on ETA from KW, but we have a stocking order placed already. I can follow up as soon as have a definitive answer.

Thanks Tom! I was talking to Kevin about them and it seems that the V3's they have listed are for RWD and maybe the X-Drive version might be slightly different due to the added weight?

The kits are slightly different - for example the V4 has a suffix of "EQ" (AWD) vs "EB" (2WD), most likely V3 will follow same suit.

Most likely the AWD version will be the 352200EQ when released.

Looking over some difference the X drive uses a different front upright than the 2wd version. The X drive uses a 2 bolt clamp where as the RWD uses a single bolt. Havent put the shocks side by side but the X drive also looks like it has a completely different shock up front.

2wd

X Drive

Thanks for the prompt reply.

Please let me know when the AWD version is release as I’m ready to purchase.

I currently running springs and the car’s handling is compromised.

Thanks

V3 is fairly easy to get for RWD currently. My shock busted the other day so I ripped out my KW HAS and replaced with a set of V3 that I got shipped to me in and installed in less than 24 hours

Anyone have any feedback on the feel and performance of these coilovers? Any eta on the plug and play version to work with factory damper controller?

tsixtial · 09-01-2022, 08:55 PM

V3s are awesome… factory damper does not function…. That being said coilovers will probably be for sale as I plan on upgrading.
