FS: KW Clubsport 2-Way Adjustable Coilovers for RWD E90/E92

Item Interest
For sale are my KW Clubsport 2-Way Adjustable Coilovers for non-M e9x's (335i, 328i and 325i's). Rears were just rebuilt by KW and haven't been installed. Fronts are in excellent condition. I went with a fully MCS coilover on my car so these are no longer needed.

These ARE NOT low-end V1's. These are one step down from KW's top of the line Competition coilovers. Clubsports are selling for $3k on KW's website. Have these priced for cheaper than a set of KW V3’s.

Per KW these will fit all 2006 - 2010 e9x sedans and coupes. These come with fully adjustable front aluminum camber plates and the housings are stainless steel.

Lowering
Front Lowering: 1.2" to 2.3"
Rear Lowering: 0.9" to 2.1"

16 click rebound dampening
12 click compression dampening

The exact same setup on KW's website:
http://www.kwsuspensions.com/product...-35220832.html

$1800 + shipping (estimated $70 in CONUS), also available for pickup in western Chicago suburbs. PM if interested.

All PM's replied to. Have a few parties interested once these are actually available. To clarify: rears are being rebuilt completely. Fronts did not need rebuild, they are in very good condition.

MCS's arrived! Just waiting for the rebuilt KW rears to return from KW. Will update this post with plenty of photos of the Clubsports once they're officially up for sale.

No external reservoirs. I'm not sure which applications externals come on, but the set I have is the exact same Clubsport setup that KW is selling on their website for e90/e92's right now:

Negative. But FWIW just be aware that there is an increase in NVH going with a camber plate setup - and that applies across the board (not just this setup).

Heh, I was referring to the MCS bad boys. I'm definitely going for the DA MCS W/ external as my next upgrade. Are you running a clutch plate LSD or torsen? The car sounds to be pretty track oriented.

Oh sorry! Ha!

We're running SA's initially to limit the complexity of adjustability. Then on rebuild they'll be upgraded to DA's w/ reservoirs - that's one of the benefits of the MCS setup. And the goal is full NASA ST1/TTA build on the 335! Full build thread here.

And a couple of recent photos from the build...

That sequential shifter wow!

That's awesome, I'm starting to lightly prep my 135 for Time Attack stuff and eventually some Nasa stuff maybe. What weight have you gotten down to? I'm still above 3k, these things are such pigs.

Oh she's definitely not going to be the skinniest girl at the dance

With full cage, we're shooting for 3,200lbs before driver. Unfortunately I don't have a true "before" weight as I bought it from a buddy that had already gutted a fair amount from the car. That said, my #1 goal with this car is safety - so the cage is extremely well built and we did not skimp on it (read: might be a big heavier than a barebones NASA legal cage). But we've also been quite aggressive with losing weight... we lost a good 30-35lbs PER DOOR by gutting them to skins, and we also shaved all unnecessary mounting tabs/etc - which add up.

And that's a CAE shifter you see. So it's still a 6MT but it's straight motorsports. It makes even the shortest short throw shifter look like you're driving a semi truck

That said, we're considering the possibility of swapping to DCT at some point. Not because the 6MT is bad, but because depending on the track, it would likely be worth another 1-2 seconds saved. But we'll see...

Yeah my car is the 6AT auto with a tune and it's so nice to have one less thing to think about at he track. It's my first auto car and I can't imagine going back now haha.

My car is 3200 without driver now, but I think 3100 is reasonable and I still have decent interior. That's amazing that you can lose #30 per door... Plus I have a stupid sunroof, might do an aluminum filler plate and vinyl wrap my roof

The auto can be great at the track. The only main downside is that the trans cooler is part of the OE radiator, vs having its own stand alone cooler. And when heat is the major achilles tendon of the n54... thats some much needed cooling space for the coolant.

Do they make a carbon fiber filler for the 1 series? Us e90 guys are fortunate to have this option...

I run a 6AT cooler and big ass oil cooler.

I've never gone limp (hehe) at the track.

Still waiting to get fronts off of the car. The custom setup I'm moving to had a delay. Sorry for the delay to all who have PM'd me. I will get photos as soon as they are off of the car.
