Not sure if the V3 settings will be the same as clubsport, but I can probably help you with settings some.
But there is no good mix for an occasional track day plus street you will have to change (like I do) at times you will be at the track Response will be too slow in any moderate street friendly setting at the track especially with the rebound and the compression definitely has a lot of room for adjustment. But again, don't know how similar or different they may be from clubsport I suggest try the settings out that come in the manual that KW suggests until it breaks in, and move from there to something you like (considering you know how changing different settings front/back will make the car feel and react) |

Rebound and compression adjustments don't influence wheel balancing/cnr weights. Do you run a square set up or is there is slight front drop more than rear like the H & R springs are set up? |

Nice seats, I'm also headed into IND soon to get my Brembos and was going to go with yellow too. Would be interested in seeing pics of your car once they are installed.

Curious as to why KW's remain so popular despite all the reports of excessively noisy dampers ??? Not going to use the car on the road much?

EDC is a packaged deal on the US-spec cars. If you get the tech package, you get EDC thrown in there for you.

You can get the EDC modules and use it with any coilsovers.

Didn't know that
probably would have gone PS10s then, but I have read up some great review of KWs plus I haven't seen the EDC modules available and didn't want issues with fitment. KW are the only ones marketing as a package at this moment |

Well done sir, the yellow calipers look great w/the black wheels!!
How about posting some pics of the whole car when you get them. Also, I'm sorry if you've already posted this, but what size are the rotors?
