Thanks for posting this. I took my car to Performance Auto Express after reading this to fix my KW install and Sam took care of everything.

The installing of the K-MAC camber plate looked sounded difficult the way you explained it. You had to bore out part of the coil over? Also what do you mean by Mazdaspeed/KW varient?

The "Mazdaspeed Coilovers" are really re-branded KW bits (analogous to the V3 systems that KW sells)...

Gotcha. I wonder if there is a camber plate that fits these that doesn't require it to be bored out or modified.

Not from what I know.

Unfortunately, getting Tri-point to fabricate an adaptor plate for use with the Kmacs is probably the best option available right now...
