Porsche 928 Coilovers for More Precise Steering & Better Feedback

The Porsche 928, 928 S, 928 S4, 928 GT, and 928 GTS really show their strengths when long stretches of highway and winding country roads come together in a single day. You want to cover some distance in a relaxed manner while feeling how effortlessly this grand GT follows your line. A modern suspension setup gives you the freedom to more consciously adapt your 928’s responses to your driving style and the road ahead. This preserves its confident character while making it feel more responsive and engaging behind the wheel.

Porsche 928 Suspension: A Confident Production Model Meets Modern Tuning

The Big Suspension Comparison

The Factory Suspension

The Porsche 928’s standard suspension combines an aluminum design, transaxle balance, and a Weissach rear axle to deliver high stability, good traction, and a confident GT character. Aged shock absorbers or worn bearings can cause spongy handling and unstable straight-line stability. A vehicle-specific upgrade can specifically enhance these qualities.

KW V3 Coilovers

On your favorite route, your Porsche 928 with KW V3 does exactly what you want it to. After braking and load changes, the body settles down faster, allowing you to control your steering angle and speed more precisely. This lets you take corners more smoothly, and your GT’s response becomes more predictable. The travel range of 20 to 40 mm in the front and 20 to 35 mm in the rear combines a balanced ride height with sufficient comfort for long drives.
