Sean's Sister--
coilovers are adjustable springs, you can raise and lower the car as much want. in this case , it's between 0.8-2.0..

I was looking through the KW german website and for my surprise found the new W210 kit.
Fortunately saw it before buying the HR cup kit.
KW is very used here in Portugal for racing , the Honda Civic TypeR trophy that we´re having here use KW Variant 3 and also other trophies. The variant 3 let´s you tune another parameter.
The variant 1 is only height adjustable, the variant 2 , for our car, lets you change height damping and another thing.

I am Curious. The W210 uses separate springs and dampers. No struts. I am surprised that coilovers can be used in that type of setup. Got some pics?
From www.kwautomotive.com:
"Variant 2 sporty and personalized with adjustable rebound damping
The system intended for the experienced driver who requires to not only determine the individual lowering of their vehicle, but adjust the damper setting to fine tune the system to their needs. The adjustable rebound damper allows adjustment of the pitch and roll behavior of the vehicle, adapting it to one‘s own driving preferences."
