Does anybody have a set of Koni's they want to get rid of? I'm trying to do my suspension slowly but surely. Being 17 and having a part time job doesn't help me at all <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/biggrin.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />.



Thank you,

Alex



^sorry forgot to mention that they have to be in good condition....

lol - how weird is this? i only made the decision today



i will in a couple of weeks - i am changing my front struts to something else, so my yellow sport cartridges will be up for sale - they are in excellent shape, and don't have many miles on them - haven't set a price yet



i also have a pair of used koni sport rear shocks left by a buddy to sell for him - there is a thread for those in the parts section

Its the yellow koni adjustables and springs?

we have to start defining front or rear



for the front, it's the yellow koni adjustable cartridges - you have to install them in your housings - if you want different springs than stock, you have to add the threaded collars and springs



i have a few different springs here too, but no collars



for the rear, it's just the yellow adjustable shocks - see the thread

Im looking to do front and rear but ill start with the front. I would like to have other springs than stock ones. But if you can give a price on springs and shocks that would be great....



Thank you

well, i guess we need to figure out what rates you want - this also affects things in the rear, as you need to change rates in concert there



i'll go down to the cabinet to see what rates i have left - i bought a bunch, trying out different rates for my car, until i figured out what i wanted - i only sold a couple of sets, so consquently i still have a bunch that are all but new sitting in boxes

I may interested in your front shocks too, with slightly higher rate springs.



On side note, I've been unable to find an oil rear coil-over - all the shock sets seem to have gas rears[?]. I'd like to retain the torsen bars but read somewhere that re-indexing is required if coil-overs are used[?].

mark - all too true - starting to get fun to drive though



pete - i have a prototype setup for the rear fuid type coilovers on a car now - working VERY well - one part left to work out in quantity and i will be able to release it as a kit - straight bolt in setup - no messing with torsion bars - you will be able to put whatever spring you want in there - it will not raise the car one bit, unless you want to, but won't be able to be lowered beyond what the eccentrics will do - haven't worked out cost yet



i think i'm ordering the new struts for my car today, and should be installing them as soon as they get here - just need to lift her up to get a measurement first

Hmm interesting...

By chance does the design employ spherical ends?



re: spring; Any idea what the rate is of the MO30 helper spring? If i recall it was designed to work with the torsion bars.

i have been told that the M030 helper is about 70#



the kit will not use spherical ends on a helper setup - it will on a torsion delete setup
