Product details
What does a good daily-driver coilover look like on a 2010 to 2013 Mazda 3? Part number CMZ250-KP, from the Kontrol Pro series, is KSport's answer, and the application includes the Mazdaspeed 3. It lowers the car through an adjustable lower mount while leaving the damper its full travel.
Front and rear springs are rated 9 kg/mm and 4.7 kg/mm respectively, so the car is not stiff at one end only. The damping runs through 36 levels, with one knob per damper: set it near full soft on rough pavement, firm it up for a canyon road or a track day. The pillowball upper mount adds camber adjustment and reduces the noise common to other coilovers, and the aluminum parts are machined from 6061-T6 billet.
In the box are four assembled coilovers, the upper mounts, knobs and spanner wrenches. The compatible list also shows the 2012 to 2018 Ford Focus, excluding the ST. Do not assume your trim is covered; use the year/make/model checker to verify fitment before ordering.
Supported features
Every KSport coilover offers 36 levels of damping adjustment. Set full soft for comfortable daily driving, or firm up the compression and rebound for the track.
Applications with a pillowball upper mount often include camber adjustment — useful for dialing in alignment after lowering, and it removes the need for a separate camber kit.
Applications for MacPherson-strut suspension typically use a pillowball upper mount. The bearing design resists the noise common to other coilovers, and steering feel and response improve.
Most Kontrol Pro applications adjust ride height independently of shock and spring travel, so you can set your stance without risking bottoming out the shock.
Oil and gas stay separated within the cylinder. Compared with twin-tube construction, a monotube design dissipates heat faster and more evenly, allows finer damping adjustment, and resists aeration and cavitation.
Mounts, collars, and spring perches are machined from 6061-T6 billet aluminum for a lightweight, durable, corrosion-resistant build. Steel shock bodies are zinc-plated for added protection from corrosion.
A dust boot is standard on every Kontrol Pro coilover to protect the damper seal, with the bump stop integrated inside it — more efficient, and less prone to crumbling than a separate bump stop.

Installation
Set ride height with the adjustable lower mount where the application has one; use the spring perch only where the application-specific layout has no adjustable lower mount. Lock every collar with both spanner wrenches. Start damping 18 clicks counterclockwise from full stiff and adjust from there. Professional setup and alignment are required after installation; on MacPherson fronts, establish baseline camber at the elongated lower-mount hole before fine adjustment at the upper plate.
