Hi guys
I wana know how low you can go on koni's adjustable dampers. I want to get some but will not if it doesnt go as low as my car currently is.
Pls if you have or know of any 5's wiv konis and 50mm or more drop post a picture and state wat springs have been used.
I have Koni shocks with KTR/Apex -50mm springs which seem fine. Check my profile for pictures....

i was thinking maybe if its possible to get diffferent springs on my coilovers... but i wouldnt know where to go.. n i dont even know the make :P

yours looks about the height that im after.... where did you get the springs from and how much??? how is the ride?? harsh?? have u been in one wiv coilovers?
I was told not to go any lower on konis on my old car due to the strut length being too long, nothing to do with the spring
ye.. the reason they probly told you not to go any lower... is probly because the shocks 'might' start bottoming out...
but J$£5GTT has got the height that im after.. near enuf.. as long as its not any higher... js wondering how the ride is on it...
Rich... do you have any pics of your old car on konis?

i have the minus 3 and am just using standard front shocks with no problems really,
its low an handles reasonably well,maybe i will get some coilovers in the future an get into the compression,rebound an pre-load an all that jazz but for now they work.
iv got ktr /gaz coilover suspension it sits lovely and it sits low
I have Koni custom made shocks where the shaft length is shorter and everything uprated, made by Koni Workshops specially, i have it as low as it will go on 15 inch wheels, if i turn the front wheel on full lock and look at the height between the front arch and the tyre i can not fit my little finger in that gap so its as low as you can go, i could change the side wall profile to less but then it may effect the ride comfort.
I will have a look about but they are on my old comp which like my car at the moments is having problems
As i sed people... im sick of coilovers for the road...
