    KSport Kontrol Pro Coilovers

    Has anyone had any real experience with these particular coilovers ? (specifically on a BF GTX)

    Just looking to hear some opinions/facts/horror stories on how they ride or feel . . . even if not on the car I mentioned

    -Thanks Fellas

    ive heard theyre really stiff on BH but teh dude had themm all the way down so what can you expect...
    I live my life a quarter pounder at a time. And for those 500 calories or more, I'm free. I need FRIES! Two of them. The big ones. Oh, and I need them tonight. You're lucky the double shot of BBQ sauce didn't blow the seam on your nugget box. There she is, 2 pounds of pure beef. My dad ate it in 9.0 seconds flat. Check it out, it's like this. If I lose, winner takes my happy meal. But if I win, I take the burger and the toy. To some people, that's more important.

      I have them on my escort and I feel the ride is better than my S/R strut/Eibach spring combo. The car handles wonderful, yes they do bounce, but the stiffer you set the shocks=less bounce. The stiffer the shocks the ride quality gets worse, but only on things like road seams. I feel road seams more than anything else with these. You may hear many people say they are junk and will blow out or start leaking, but I have had them for a while now and so far so good.

          the ones listed for 88-94 are for a BG chassis as the 4wd protege was availible in very late 1988 only in japan

            not a BF, but ive had them on my mazda6 for 3 years now without any issue. no leaks, and still work perfect. but i also dont drive on them in the winter which probably helps alot.

              They feel alright, but I blew three dampers in 6 months. None in the 3 months that followed though.

              Pretty soft springs on the BH ones.
