Default Tried search, Koni Yellow perch specs

Is there someone that can tell me, on a 2000 Civic EX coupe... What the Koni Yellow Perches would do for ride height? Is there one for a higher level than stock? Wanting to get some H&R sports for the higher spring rates, but not wanting that kind of drop. Drive too much over bad roads, so I need clearance for my resonator. Anyways, any info on what the perches are like say, + or - 1/4 inch etc... on each slot, for front and rear?

Thanks in advance!

I believe the top perch is about 15mm above the stock height/middle perch. Either wait for CRX Lee to post in here or pm him. He knows everything about koni's.

Also, why don't you consider ground control coilovers. They make a great combo with the koni yellows, custom spring rates, and you could set it at whatever height you want it at.

I haven't thought much about them, and I still want some daily drive kind of stuff, ... my job can make me drive about 40k a year... yeah... So I am both in the market for some comfy reclinable seats from Sparco or Recaro, with low brackets, as I am 6'5" lol...

Out of curiosity though, about how much would those GCs cost for a stock height etc...

They go for about 325, with off the shelf spring rates, or custom. Look in the sponsor section you usually can find them for around that price with free shipping. Just make sure you order koni specific ground control coilvers (no extra charge for this)

The good thing about koni/gc combo is that it could be set to as stiff or soft as you want it. The koni yellows are adjustable. So when you want something stiffer just turn it, when you want it to be softer, just adjust it. As for height you can raise you height, keep it stock, or lower it. Thats the good thing about the coilover.
