Re: NEW! Koni adjustable complete set.
Out of interest how do they adjust for the front inserts?
Just curious if they are on car adjustables like the ones I get made. How many point adjustable are they.

Re: NEW! Koni adjustable complete set.
koni's don't adjust in clicks
they aren't adjustable on the car, you have to take the topmount off.
adjusting is done by fully compressing the piston; turning anti-clockwise till the piston slides into a groove at the bottom; then anti-clockwise for softer shock, clockwise for harder shock. you can adjust this 3x360degr

This is the way it works. Its adjustable from very soft, to that stiff, you cant get the damper out by hand

Re: NEW! Koni adjustable complete set.
Thats great for stealth looks aspecialy for TUV etc. That is the only problem with my dampers is the adjuster is like this
It can be usfull to be able to quickly adjust on car especialy when intialy setting them up.
I glad to see the Konis back and give ppl a little more choice in what they use. I'd be very interested to have a set to compare directly to mine or for someone to try both and see how well they compare.
Not that anyone has asked you you bet are you able to sell fronts only? Are the front dampers full length or are they shorter for use with lowering springs?

Re: NEW! Koni adjustable complete set.
the 4 sets red and yellow koni's for the 300 series i installed didn't click on adjustment, all of them were brandnew out of the box.

I've tried Koni dampers on different 300's, and I like the way they act and can resist max abuse. However, I never tried a different make, so I cant compare to Spax for example. I understand you want to compare these with yours? I cant give anything for free or something, but I'm wondering what you have in mind. Quantity/availability is still limited by the way. But depends how many people want these dampers. Its still a v300, which most people drive because its a cheap car in first place...
I am being asked to sell the fronts only, but I prefer to sell the complete set.
The dampers are full length.
