The End Of My K-Sports

About two months ago marked the end of my KSport coil overs on my 06 TSX. It seems I had fell victim to the quality issues that many reviews have pointed out. Today I want to give my final verdict and opinion on the KSport coil overs I had and why I had to get rid of them.

Valentine V1 Radar Detector

I’m always skeptical of ways to fool the traffic police. Nine times out of ten they have already caught you in the act of speeding before you radar detector even bats an eye at it and at that point you’re already done for. It would be great if there were a detector that could catch the threat of a traffic cop before you or they could make visual contact. Well I have to say, now there is!

CT Ice Box Intake vs Injen SP1431 Intake

In the world of import intakes there are three major variations:

• Box intakes
• Cold Air Intakes (CAI)
• Short Ram Intakes (SRI)

All three have their key advantages and disadvantages, CAI is good for high end gain but tends to lack in the low end and can lead to hydro lock, SRI’s are good for low end response but lack in the high end and are prone to heat soak, and box style intakes sit right in the middle of the road, good low end response, better than SRI high end gain, and not as prone to hydro lock.

After Two Weeks – K-Sport Coil Overs for the TSX

It’s been about two weeks since I had the K-Sports installed on my 2006 TSX (Chassis CL9). I must say they have out performed my expectations. I have ridden on mainly Tein’s in friends cars and these K-Sports feel every bit as solid as their Tein’s. Relatively quiet, smooth but firm rebound, and moderately stiff spring rates make these coil overs and nice choice.

K-Sport Coil Overs for the TSX

For a little over four months I’ve been riding on Tein H-Tech springs and OEM shocks/struts ( H-Tech Review) and the OEM’s were showing signs of the abuse. Even with just a 1.25″ drop they were suffering so it was time to upgrade to a full coil over system.
