If you're going the Koni route, might as well get the adjustables.


This is how it should have come out of Torino!

Ive got them on the front and rear and they're good.
The springs that came with them aren't as good as the Eibachs so going back to them.

I find Eibacks and Konis a little too hard for a road car.

Rear Konis are a good ride with Eibachs, keeps the spring under control nicely. Dont like front Konis, I think they are very expensive for what is only an insert to go in your rusty old damper!
