OP has installed an oil cooler for his differential with electric pump circulating the hypo oil to the cooler and back. Main battery placed in the middle rear of the spare wheel recess area. Looks like a bit of rear diffuser to improve air flow to the rad cooler.
Nice work

Hi all i orderd a KW competition kit as the car has passed the what the V2 kit can offer on track. I've fitted the rears with no problem but the front lower mounting for the springs dose not fit into wishbone (see pis) KW are making me 2 more mountings the right size to fit to wishbone

Looks great. Is this a special bespoke kit or available for the W202? I dread to imagine how much it coûts... 😱

That's reasonable for bespoke. Have you done anything on the sway bars?

Where's the v2 kit? Are you interested in selling it? PM a price if you still have it.

do you happen to know the spring rate on V2 vs the competition ones? i'm looking into putting swift spring on my kw v2 curious how much spring rate i can get away with since dampers can't be revalved.

Speak to KW as they matche the springs to dampers. Maybe you should go for the comp kit it made a world of difference over the v2 kit on my car

Unfort kw in the states are not that helpful. Do you have a contact I can reach out to? 2400 is not bad I might just pull trigger for similar setup.
btw did you tell them how much spring rate to use? Why didn’t they just use single linear spring?
