Koni does indeed make adjustable struts

for our cars!!??
Okay, the Koni web site is wrong -very wrong, and if you want the super-adjustable Konis for our Gen5's please see the link below...

I actually called Shox.com in disbelief...bottom line, they have been out for over a month -and hardly anyone knows this...

Good hunting

5th Gen Koni yellows were listed in their catalog since last year. Someone on .org here actually sold his 4th gen Koni (he has a 5th gen) and waiting in line for this product.

I doubt there will be any change if they decided to use shock inserts again. The front struts are easy to adjust....for the rear ones, you have to take it off the car in order to adjust the stiffness.


I bought them because the quality of the product.

I had the adjustable Koni sport shocks (yellow) on a 1994 Mustang GT coupe and those things at their firmest setting would jar your fillings loose. They were stiff!!! They really helped the handling of my car though. That thing would corner like it was on rails on the stiffest setting.

They cost me about a grand installed for front and rear though.

I knew that.... just that it was too late for me to get KONI when I have paid for my KYB GR2.
