what do you mean adjustables? electronic ride control? or adjustible gas struts. If so, then Konis for 3rd gens are adjustible.

I don't think anyone sells replacements anymore however if you feel like doing some research. You could find out who made the strut and see if you can find that company today. Or what you could do is send the strut fluid out to a lab (blackstone) to find out what it is so you can repair it. I noticed on my old 87se that the O-ring that holds the fluid in was busted but back then adjustable struts were $500 each! Who knows maybe you'll be able to contact a shock/strut manufacture that would allow you to re-valve it. I noticed in the Z32's that their models with adjustable struts on normal were as hard as ours on firm. There is a solution here, you just gotta do some research.
