If you buy directly from KW I think its cheaper, I can't remember the name of the reseller in England but there's one.
On 2000 the kit for the Audi has cost 800 euros so you get the picture.
And V2 use Koni shocks (revalved!)
V3 has all type of regulations to play and its stainless steel you ...:lol:

ffls: U know any where that sells these KW Variants?? Im selling the Konis tomorrow and lookin for coil-overs. U know a rough price??

Juha: yeah its hard to compare rock solid konis to rock solid billys, the billys seem to be stiffer when cornering rather than a straight road.

there is this part cos everybody likes bit different setup...
very hard to compare...

But the best suspension kit is KW version 3
I had one in a Audi S3 and its much better than koni, and I had Koni in an Opel Kadett, Subaru Impreza WRX and Corsa:look:
If I knew what I know now I wuld buy KW V3:thumbs:

Allright mate, youve probably got your heart set on Billys now and i dont blame you. Ive got the Koni kit on my car and its a great kit, its rock hard and dosent move round corners but with a set of bump-stops it dosent come down hard on potholes, bumps etc.
Never got billys because of the price, couldnt really justify spending almost twice as much on a non-adjustable kit.
At the end of the day its down to you, just thought id tell you my experience with the konis. Top kit.

i know wot u mean. as long as it handles better than it does now thats gotta be somethin:D

no it was a joke, but these thing are matter of taste, and its not easy to tell or describe something like suspension....

dont worry i wont. jus thouhght i wud ask for some advice before i pod a load of money out.

but if you dont like it dont blame me!!:D

its just my opinion....:;)

cheers mate...u see i werent sure whether i wanted adjustables but on my nova they werent and a mate has avo adjustables on his but never touches em. I was lookin for somethin that is good quality and does the job well. I'll order em soon cos i want it lowered before i go and try my wheels.

if hard is what you like dont ask anymore, bilstein is the only way!!:D

and its definately like a drivers kit, not like something "now my car looks lowered thing"... :lol:

and if you are used to it, that its hard, then its no probs, cos it will be hard, but not in bad way, as i see it...

not really lookin for coilovers...when u say hard i used to have G-Max (i know they are shit) on my nova. u could feel the bumps but i got used to it. i'd rather it be like that than how it is at the mo. hit a big hump or summat and it makes u feel sick cos it jus keeps on goin!

So u ppl think the bilsteins are a beeter bet? :thumbs:

if money is not a problem go for kw coilovers variante 3 inox line.
top stuff...

what ive tried bilstein, its hard but not like the way some cheaper are.

cant really explain how it feels, and there is so many things wich does effect to ride quality, wheel+ tyres*pressures+ width of wheel n tyres*, bushes*worn out or poly* and many more...

I have Koni sport and Eibach on mine and the bloody thing is hard as a rock:lol:
Handling is very good but the ride quality is....let me see awful!
My mechanic is always saying (and he is a long time racer) to change the shocks for billies.
I think I'm going to try springs from Whiteline as a cheaper solution. This guys developed a Koni kit for the Corsa.
So if you don't your car to ride like a pig go for the billstein or KW coilovers version 3 (adjustable in height, rebound and compression):P

matt, would be offcourse be best to drive a corsa with bilstein in it but, if there is no possibility....

its just matter of a taste wichone you take, in the end...

they are hard but, not like hard hard. so when there is lots like small holes in road then its not hard, very difficult to explain...
i think that they are not adjustables. but both koni and bilstein is good but bilstein is absolutely harder,but not in bad way.

and bilstein is really good!!*but its what you like offcourse...*
