Info on the KONI’s yellows?

lastblueprint · 12-24-2011, 03:45 PM

I was currently browsing tire rack web site, I came across the Koni’s set up for the 370z. Finally they are out. Anyone here has any info on them? Anyone have them yet?

I did experience the Koni yellows with the Spec-R Swift Spring set up on my 350z in the past, I enjoyed it a lot. Just trying to see if anyone else has opinion on them…..

Thanks

I want to do this exact same setup (koni yellows + swift springs), keep us posted!

Sweet! It's about time Koni put out for the 370Z guys. If I still had mine I'd be rocking Koni Yellows + Swifts.

I have a pair of Yellows waiting to go on the 5.0 in March.

I wonder how they compare to the V3's?

v3s allow for rebound and compression damping to be adjusted independently.

It remains to be seen how they will stack up on the Z, but the yellows are usually a good budget alternative to V3s...usually some almost as good for like half the price or so.

Yellows really get fun when people mod them for adjustability and custom valve them to get what they want.

The Koni site looks like they are still looking for a test Z, and they claim they only fit the 10-11s...

I agree, also the Tokico Blue is a great set up as well, but they don't have anything out yet for the 370z....

I've tried contacting them multiple times, I'd offer my Z for testing if they weren't in Kentucky haha.

If these are officially out, I'm buying them as soon as I have the cash.

haitech · 12-25-2011, 08:53 PM

I thought the blues are just an oem replacement as in they are only a little better than oem struts. no?

KamiSpeed · 12-29-2011, 03:05 PM

i looked into this and Koni isn't open until the 2nd... so we'll have to wait till then. From what I see they're still in R&D

Is this a product you guys over at Kami would carry?? If so you have a potential buyer in myself if these ever hit the market. Paired with the Swifts I got from you guys all that comes to mind is
