My car is set up for AX with yellow bilsteins in front and back. Bigger sway bar / torsion bars, 140 lb springs. By switching to Koni adjustables, how "softer" can the ride get with the rest in place?
Why? Right now, street driving is tight and rough. I want to keep driving the car street, but it's really too rough. Is Koni worth it, or should I swap out other parts in between races? |

I have a set of front Koni's I can let you run around on so you can feel the difference.
Contact me tomorrow after noon. I'm relaxing this weekend and only spending 10 hours working on 914's/the shop. B |

For street driving I "always" use mine full soft and it's the cats ass. Just firm enough to give you that "perfect" euro-ride feel. Highly recommended.

FYI Rob... I dont have any rears right now and you would have to go to another type of rear spring (I'm selling Eibach and H&R) The rears are expected this coming week. I have several sets of fronts.

Cool- you're the best. It sounds like Konis are the plan then.
10 hrs on a day off? That's why you need to drive my car at the AX - balance: Work - Life - Fun. My Mom AXing is like.... I can't go there. Cheryl would love to trade me. I'm tied up this weekend studying for the GMAT (test on Thursday) so don't worry about it this week. Once I get my application in after May 1st, I'll have more time to sort things out. Thanks again, R |
