You'll love the KW Club Sport coilovers. I'll never forget the first track event I did after the swap from PSS9 coilovers to standard V3s. It was by far the biggest jump in my driving ability. The car was so much more controllable in a slide. I felt like Superman sliding around Shenandoah. I kind of had an out-of-body-experience as I watched myself do stuff in the car that I had never done before, it was very cool. I had definitely outgrown the PSS9s and didn't realize it.
I think my problem at this point was that i haven't grown INTO something less "sophisticated" (lack of a better word i guess) or advanced as the Club Sports. I mean, i only did one autoX when i had the Megans.

thats all i'm worried about. I know i'll get there with practice and track time, but just can't get myself to accept the fact that if i went for say something like swift springs and konis... i may be buying new coilovers to better suit my needs in a few years. and i got such a great deal on the club sports that i really can't pass on it.

I have been running KW Club Sports. They work pretty well. The biggest improvement I have felt on the track in the S2000 was a wing. Makes "the edge" a nice wide platform instead of a narrow line. Also one of the few things were the faster you go, the better it works (and not the opposite like brake zones, tire traction, slip angles etc).

I agree. but that will be one of the last things i'll end up getting unfortunately.

So you like your clubsports? As i said, if i didn't get such a good deal on them, i wouldve gone V3 or V2.

On another subject, when I pulled my air conditioning I looked for a how-to and didn't find squat so I did one after I got everything out. If you're considering pulling the A/C here's the link:
