    Koni news!

    Great news! Koni is going to make another run of our L-body coilovers and are also making a run of the rear non-l body shocks! We will be offering not only the lbody coilovers but also a coilover fronts for the other cars along with koni rears and lowering rear springs. Production is expected to take approx. 20 weeks so look for them at the end of the summer! we will be offering a discount on pre-ordered kits!

    Re: Koni news!

    koni g/p/k/a/j body rears will be around $299 a pair, the rear lowering springs will be about $150 pair, the koni inserts, sleeves/hats/perches and coilover springs in the front will be in the $600 range. We will be trying to be in the $1000-1100 range for a full kit. I will have better pricing for a kit in the next few weeks. The l-body coilover kits are $1499 but we will be offering a pre-order price in the $1250 range.... Save $250!

    That is good news Cindy. I think there is more demand for these than what Koni was seeing when they discontinued them originally. Hopefully they can get it together before their market share is cut down due to all the workarounds going on right now. It sure would be nice to have the bolt in kits again.

    Re: Koni news!

    Just so I understand correctly. The L-body coil-overs are Koni, but the coil-overs being offered for other body styles will not be Koni? Thanks in advance for clarification.

    Re: Koni news!

    No, both body styles with be Konis and the springs on both kits are eibach.... just that the non-lbody will likely be inserts for the front. I do believe you could also use the L-body front set-up, you would have to grind off about 2-4 millimeters off the knuckle to get them to fit and then use a different strut bearing and a shorter 7" spring instead oft he 8" spring the l-body uses. Plus we are also working on a replacement koni strut as well that will not be a coilover but use the factory style spring.
