Default KW Variant 3 Install Monday

I was in Dude heaven yesterday when I got early delivery of my birthday gift from the Wife... a Traeger 855 pellet grill. This grille is perhaps the biggest BBQ advancement I've seen in 54 years! https://www.expressnews.com/food/col...s-13273018.php
While I was humping the grille in the Garage(LOVE that thing), another delivery showed up...after waiting two months my V3 3 Coilovers had arrived a month early! I got an appointment set for installation next Monday at Soulspeed.com, and I will be pleased to report results next week.

Here is a write-up at the KW Blog. https://blog-int.kwautomotive.net/kw...jaguar-f-type/


I think I'm going to buy some lotto tickets!

If you don't know Treager, they have wi-fi remote controlled temperatures, vary accurate remote temperature monitoring to your smartphone, and real wood results. The first pic features a knife I built for my father, we were feeding my Stepbrothers work crew, and I got an extra Butt. 16 hours of low fire, and the meat just pulled apart. Made fantastic soft tacos.

Thumbs up

These KW's V3's are an excellent upgrade from stock! (As well as the VAP spring set or H&R springs, both which I tried before KW came out with our V3 XE set)

Less body roll. smooth transitions over bumps from 20-140. Feels like a different, improved version of the same car...it just eats up bad or good pavement.

I just put 150 miles on her today and had a grin from ear to ear the whole way! Tight in the turns, much more seems to stay on the pavement. The car is stickier, more comfortable at speed, and safer to drive now. To borrow a word from a friend,,,"Transformational" Highly recommend!
