KW Variant 3 Coilovers: 2013 Ford Focus ST

Available May 14th, 2013

KW suspensions announces their stainless steel constructed Variant 3 coilovers for the 2013 Ford Focus ST.

The KW coilover suspensions for the 2013 Ford Focus ST enables the owner to lower their vehicle 25-40mm on the front axle and 20-35mm on the rear axle and retains enough travel to handle maximum load and dynamic loads during driving. Adjustable (and independent reacting) rebound and compression damping allows a truly individual performance driving setup for those technically demanding drivers. Compression dampening adjustment is conducted in the low-speed range, while the high-speed set-up, so decisive for driving comfort, has been pre-set by KW engineers. All KW coilovers come with a lifetime warranty and pass stringent German TUV safety & quality testing standards. Each kit is TUV approved.

Part #:35230059

Application: 2013 Ford Focus ST

Coilover Spring Upgrade? Insight from the pro’s at Fortune Auto & Swift Springs

0
Filed under Uncategorized
Tagged as , , ,

Spring Upgrade? Why Swift Springs?

Swift springs of Japan noticed that most spring manufacturers use old silicone chrome material, which is not strong enough for automotive springs. Other manufacturers use a heat tempering method that damaged the strength of the material that inevitably require more coils, in turn, more weight.The material was also suffering from a shortened life span. With springs like this leading the industry, Swift saw massive room for improvement.

Swift’s R & D team created material, called H5S.TW, which is stronger then regular silicone chrome material. Because of this material, Swift could make the spring wire thinner, and could wind the springs with fewer coils, which greatly decreased weight while dramatically increasing available stroke.

In the end the choice is simple. Swift offers superior Duarbility, Stroke, Weight Savings and less coils producing less noise and coil binding!

Swift Assist Springs

The best of both worlds: Swift assist springs provide
dynamic progressive – linear rate.

Assist springs have two functions. The first is the spring adds a progressive rate to the initial portion of the stroke. This progression can add increased comfort is used on a daily driver coilover setup that has stiff springs installed. It provides racers added softer spring rate progression. Once the assist crushes, the normal spring rate will take over.
The second job is the same as helper springs. They prevent the loss of traction during rebound, and extreme cornering.

Assist springs are designed to repeatedly be fully crushed. Every assist spring crushes to the same height. That allows drivers to change assist springs without resetting the spring perch on coilover without changing ride height.

All Fortune Auto coilovers can be upgraded with swift springs & swift assist springs.

New Products Release – A’PEXi S1 Damper for 2007+ Infiniti G35 Sedan/ G37 Coupe

Filed under New Product Announcements
Tagged as , , ,

Ride quality and handling performance are not mutually exclusive. Almost all coilover suspension systems are designed for track use, but are not well matched for street use. In fact, most are sprung and dampened improperly for street use, which not only gives a harsh and unpleasurable ride, but also hurts grip performance when the suspension cannot conform to the terrain.

KSport Press Release – New Kontrol Pro Coilovers for 2010

0
Filed under New Product Announcements
Tagged as ,

After a year of record-setting sales for KSport’s popular Kontrol Pro coilover suspension systems, KSport is proud to announce a revamped Kontrol Pro coilover system for 2010 that comes as a result of hundreds of hours in research and development, as well as customer feedback and industry technology improvements. In addition, many specific applications for the Kontrol Pro feature KSport’s patent-pending new flagship upper pillowball mountings system, the ProStreet pillowball. Available on the market after August 1 2009, all new Kontrol Pro coilover systems will feature the new design upgrades.

Starting with the most obvious visual change, the electro-plated steel shock and strut bodies on the Kontrol Pro will benefit from an all new plating technology that not only has proven to give stronger protection from the elements, but also changes the trademark silver body appearance, to a more subtle black color. Along with this new plating process and color change, comes improved protection and durability for harsh environments such as snow, salt and dust, as well as protection from fluids and debris often seen in racing environments.

All Kontrol Pro coilover strut applications will receive two major upgrades: an increased strut body diameter and the ProStreet upper pillow ball mount. The 8% increase in strut body diameter comes directly from KSport’s racing development program and will provide extra strength for the high demand situations often seen with strut suspensions. Responding to customer feedback and KSport’s own research, the patent-pending ProStreet upper pillow ball mount featured on all new Kontrol Pro strut applications utilizes a special design in which the upper spherical bearing is housed inside a poly-rubber housing for increased ride comfort, without a sacrifice to performance. Of course, all strut applications utilizing camber adjustment will retain that ability with the ProStreet mount. As with all KSport coilover systems, the warranty period has been extended from 12-months to 18-months, giving the Kontrol Pro coilover system the best warranty in the business.
