I was told that the 'floaty' feeling during fast driving over uneven surfaces will be gone since the shocks will be stiff; here's hoping for that being true. I didn't want to get coils because I have Swift springs and they are great from personal experience of 4K miles on em now. I've read nothing but good things about Koni + Swift on here.

Anyways, I'll report back after Seb@SpecialtyZ does the install. I'll also ask him to install the 20/25MM spacers for me since the wheels will be off anyway. I got base wheels and will post pics after all is done.

Thanks to everyone on this forum for great info in this thread. Of all the car fourms I've checked out, this one is really special... without bias


You are gonna love the setup, dude.

I dont quite remember. I was playing with the settings a lot and forget where I ended up leaving them I have been feeling that I would like them a bit stiffer lately though.

When you adjust em again, let me know where you get em set, since we'll have the same suspension setup springs/shocks combo.

That is funny you say that because all of our customers that we install koni's on seem to just keep their settings the same!
