I spoke with Koni reps several times last year, and again about a month before I sold the car. They've got nothing in the pipeline for the Z.

That is not happy news. That makes me a sad Panda.

Yeah I was not terribly happy about it either. I guess when the car is moving 10k units a year and the rest of the aftermarket isn't exactly booming, it doesn't make good business sense though.

I was not happy with the Koni Yellows on my Z33 paired up with H&R springs. Compared to a set of KW3's that are fully adjustable w compression/rebound, not limited to only compression like the Koni Yellows. Maybe Koni's are good for the track, but too harsh of a ride for DD imo.

I am hoping for a new reworked strut on the 2012 Z34 to swap out with my 09OEM struts paired up with Swifts.

Good coastal cruise Sat, probably my favorite section of PCH from Fort Ross to Leggett. The last 21 miles from PCH to Leggett is enough to sastify even the die hard for twists and turns. I rank it # 1 for the West Coast Canyon Carvers. We had the road to ourselves with perfect weather. It does not get any better than this!

PM me your addie.
