Ground Control Coilover Kit!!!

[gsfent]

Damping and rebound rates compared to stock? Spring rates compared to stock? (ride is pretty stiff now with 50 psi).
How much height adjustability? I woud love to lower the car about an inch, should also help with better aero.

Regards,
Jerry

im sure they will offer different spring rate like they do with all their kits so you should be able to choose what rates you would want based on your needs, not sure on the damping rebound rates yet since it is still in development but ill let you know as soon as i find out!

Any update on K-Sports new suspension for the Insight?

Pipe dream?

Here is a thread with pictures from blown240 about how he installed Aveo spings.

Still no updates on this K-Sport kit?

I should be getting my hands on some custom made Koni's shocks in the next few weeks, i'll post up pics once I pay for them and receive them in the mail.

The ksport kit is nonexistent, talked to a rep and they discontinued it. Just ordered my ground control kit and asked the rep how many they've sold and so far a grand total of three. Anyhow, should have them next week and my new wheels/ tires as well so I'm looking forward to having one of the only slammed insights out there.

Pardon my ignorance, but I'm not a suspension guy. What advantages does this Ground Control kit offer?

[neloner]

Ability to adjust the ride height of the car, and slightly stiffer springs instead of the mushy Honda oem. Mostly a cosmetic upgrade but there are probably aero advantages to lowering the car. I'm looking forward to having a more responsive ride as well, won't have to slow down for corners anymore, that should preserve momentum and equal greater mpgs as well .

So you would be able to adjust the ride height both above and below stock? Hmm.. Cool.

It would be pretty cool to lower it the maximum you could while cruising on the highway, and raise the height when you're say, camping.

Yes, I've taken my Insight off roading.. in a sense. Not really recommended....

442k? Wow, i thought mine was getting up there at ~303k. heh.

Im interested in where this goes, but without spring rate numbers and price point being in the same spot it's all pretty vague info. And that doesnt even mention the problem of how to quantify the difference in the dampers.

Keep it updated, though.
