Default Koni Yellows vs. Koni Yellow SP3's

Whats the difference. I searched but couldn't find anything. Are they the same thing?

And do any of the site sponsors sell the GC specific Konis? Are those the sp3's maybe? i'm confused

the Koni SP3 is a koni that was made for nuespeed, is has more circlips then a regular koni, and i think has a droop limmiter or something. (the addition of circleclips is only a good thing with lowerng springs doesn't make a difference if you use coil overs.)


The GC's that fit the koni's perfectly can be bought at the website listed in my sig. they (ground control) are also a sponsor on here.

The piston length in the SP3's is about 20mm shorter than the standard yellows.

plus you get more drop flexibility five positions of adjustment instead of three.

slammed hatch described the difference properly already. you are incorrect. the piston shaft is not shorter, it just has a bigger internal spacer that limits droop more.
