Please don't flame the coilovers. I know they arent the best, but better than nothing. i thought all ksports were 36 way adjustable...
The Ksports i have appear to be pretty new, but it doesn't look like they are adjustable.. Am i wrong? please look at pics.http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n169/mrmikeman/dsportcoilovers002.jpg

they should be, when bought new, they come with this long stick with a knob on the top. you need that stick in order to adjust. its somewhat long like 5 inchs or so. ive seen these on a different car other than an s14, but im sure adjustability is in the same manner.

As for the flaming part, I have riden in a car with those coils in it, and he had no problems sliding the fuck out of the car, beats the shit out of stock.
7kg/6kg for 800$? I think they are a great buy, save the 400$ from buying stances and you can get tension rods/RUCA's/etc..
Not sure about the flathead though, you can try it..should hear a faint click when you turn it.

I dont know about Ksports specifically, but my TEIN coilovers are easy enough to turn with just my hand... otherwise the right size allen wrench should work

no, a screwdriver won't work it looks like an uber skinny allen wrench and its pretty long. AIM ksportsupport and they can help you out.

no the flat head screw drive won't work, But I do have a set of the keys to fit those that are Ksports that i might be willing to sell and ship to you if you're interested. I also have a warranty card and the rest of the literature.

its actually a long hex driver type deal.
dont keep those on full hard all the time on decently bad roads..
it'll blow in less than 50 mi.

Ding ding ding!
As said, all you need is a metric hex driver.

anyone know the size? If i know the size i can just buy an allen wrench, cut it and weld it to a long piece of metal or to a super thin/long screwdriver...right?
Again, thanks for the replies...
So how would these be for road racing on a 275 rear and 255 front tire with the rest of the suspension done? Right now i'm on freshly rebuilt apexi ws coilovers(non dampening adjustable) and they feel too soft. Think these will blow with my setup after a few track days?
thanks again guys.

Yeah I have the whole little packet that comes with them, sold my old S14 and forgot to give them to the kid, by the time I got him to call me back he totalled it.
