Coilover options

Has anyone installed KW varient 3 or Bilstein PSS9 coilovers yet? They seem like they woud be a better option because Tein CS are
"cushy" and Flex is a bit stiff. KW is the top coilover in Germany I believe. I'm not going to track my car.

Their is one person that I know of with a Z that lives in Italy that has the suspension and one other person also with a Z here in North America, however he doesn't do the forum thing if you know what I mean. Unfortunately, a recent board change at my350Z.com means you won't be able to simply search for any usefull info. I do recall that the gentleman from Italy did like the suspension very much.

I just found out their is one G35 coupe owner that has the varient 3's on his car, he just did a post on my350Z.com inside a thread talking about Tein Flex coilovers. The KW's are going to be a performance notch above the PSS9's.

The KWs are fully adjustable, according to my350Z.com suspension facts "they are the only ones of their kind". I'm sure their expensive, maybe a group by is in order. I think these would be sweet on our G35s. Check out the KW website.
