Can someone kindly direct me where to purchase just the Koni specific coilover sleeve things? I can't find them

 

Anyone?

 

http://www.ground-control-store.com

 

Where on the site though I can't find any? Im talking about just the adjustable perch thing if that wasn't clear.

 

Are you talking about the actual Koni spring perch, or the Ground Control spring perch?

The silver thing on the bottom right?



Or the gold thing on the red sleeve?

 

The Gold thing and the Red thing it goes on. The Perch and sleeve? The ones that go on koni shocks. Sorry for all the confusion

Give Ground Control a call. I'm not sure if they sell the sleeves and perches separately without springs.

 

I might do that. I sent them an email about 5 days ago. Nothing yet... Haven't had much fun with their customer service in the past. =/

 

I agree, it's not the greatest, but I've always gotten what I've needed from them over the phone.

It's usually best to give them a call if you need help in a hurry. Calls are prioritized above e-mails when it's busy; I know I occasionally miss answering e-mails altogether if I'm busy with calls and counter sales in the shop.

If you can't get anywhere with that, try posting a WTB ad in the Honda-Tech Marketplace and searching through the FS forum there.

 

call them up. I've never had a problem when talking to someone on the phone. They've always been helpful.

 

Is anyone running the actual KONI sleeves and perches. Koni lists them in there catalog, and Summit has them for sale.

They are designed for 2.25" ID springs and have adapters for 2.5" ID Springs.

I know that the standard is the GC's (I run them too on the race car), but I'm looking for a threaded sleeve to use with my OEM springs on my daily driver.

 

Koni part #'s are

Threaded Sleeve: 80.0000.005
Lower Spring Perch: 80.0000.0006
25 mm upper spring perch: 80.0000.0007
40 mm upper spring perch: 80.0000.0008

25mm Kit: 80.0000.1
40mm Kit: 80.0000.2
2.25-to-2.5 adaptor: 15.29.04.003.0

 

IIRC the koni stuff is just really expensive. Last time i checked it was like 225 for 4 threaded sleeves.

As for the threaded sleeves and OEM springs that wont work. The perch is designed for flat ground springs, which OEM springs are not

 

Yeah, it isn't very cheap I'll agree with that. I was planning to modify a set of the OEM spring seats to work with the sleeve.

Not very many options if you want progressive springs with adjustable ride height of a sleeve system. I really looking for ride quality similar to stock w/ height adjustment. I already have a set of revalved Koni from when I raced the Prelude so I'm trying to use those...

I need to really see the Koni perch before I can do it.

Summit lists the Koni sleeve kits (which include upper mounts that I don't need) for $62 per corner.
