UPS Delivers.. pun intended..

[SHO Continental]

A nice brown box arrived today.. with just what I was waiting for.

only problem.. looks like they put all the stickers and decals on the inner facing side on one of the rear struts.. ohh well.

It'll 2 or 3 weeks before anything is installed... the struts were a present but I need to scrape together the money for the rest.. :corn:

Will those go with stock springs???

Nice, expensive present.

They are for my '93 which currently has intrax springs over stock struts.

 

[NotSoSlowSHO]

That should be an improvement

Congrats! Good luck on the suspension job

I have a set of Tokikos in the garage awaiting a set of eibach coils. I cannot wait :corn:

some thing wrong with Koni?

some thing wrong with Koni?

other than the increased price and being more likely to fail because of type of modification necessary(which ive seen), no.

Well they do have a life time warrenty which covers that, even though it's a huge inconvieance. I will aggree they should just make a straight up entire strut, especially for the price, like Tokico does. Now some Tokico's with Koni inserts? Possible? I dunno, crazy expensive, yet cool, yes.

I think I might just go for the Tokico's, when I do. Price..... and every thing, I do see the Koni being a bit ridiculous, but I won't lie I'm VERY interested in adustment from 10-50% stiffer then stock, rather then being stuck at 20%.

Or you could just use a stock strut housing for your Koni insert and paint the housing Tokico blue and have the same thing ...

If you want to do anything custom with the spring perch you have no choice than to use the Konis. For most people this is not necesary and the Tokico will probably provide a nicer ride overall. The Koni is pretty stiff in the bump direction (which is non-adjustable) and contributes greatly to the ride harshness.
