Better than the KW V3 for DD? Care to elaborate? I may make a switch soon, and hopefully make my way back to the track, but car is still DD for now

Hard to believe it was for me as well. I think because the SRC dampening range is much broader than the KW's; you can make the ride very comfortable (relatively speaking) - despite the near double spring rate.

As do I to the tune of 20k miles a year. Ride can be bumpy when the road goes to crap, but most of time, it's actually not too bad.

No worries. It was for my gf, and she's found another way in...

surprised to learn that src's have a better ride quality than the v3's. One thing I know about the kw's from experience is that they're bulletproof. Anyone with src's care to comment on longevity, might be time to upgrade.

maxrev has been tracking them hard for a while, with no problems so far - may be too soon to tell...

As far as I recall, maxrev drives his car 3-4days a week. My car is a DD. I would assume that a suspension encounters more abuse from street driving rather than track events. Not sure though.
