x2 nuff sed...

 

 

i gotta agree with the general consensus here.

 

Koni/GC and if you need stiffer rates than go with AMR.

 

Yes you can, they will makes your set up to your specs

 

If you're wanting something stiffer than 600lbs you'll need to order race shocks, or re-valve the sports. AMRs are designed for whichever spring rate you order.

 

what make koni/ ground control better than a full body coilover

 

What's makes a full bodied coilover better than a Koni/GC combo? Nothing. You can have a full bodied coilover and it still be crap. Where do you people get this stuff from?

 

Nothing makes either better than the other in terms of a design standpoint.

Koni/GC and AMR are the only ones out there offering lifetime warranties. At similar price ranges and the level of custom-ability from either why would anyone choose anything else?

 

??????? are you serious or are you ****ing around................

 

Perhaps you can tell us what makes a full bodied coil-over better than a traditional shock/spring or shock/coil-sleeve combo?

 

Noob question here, but isnt the way the koni/gc are made make them sorta like a full bodied coil-over system?

 

How do you figure?

 

It's simply a coil sleeve on a perch on a shock.

The only difference with a "full bodied" coil-over is that sleeve is threaded onto the body or the sleeve is welded in during production. That's it.

 

read what he posted all he did was flip my question around and make a stupid remark.

i dont know which design is better that y i ask. but ***g like this just need to stop posting

 

My point was...why do you have this inherent belief that somehow a "full-bodied coilover" is somehow a superior product than say a Koni & Ground Control combo. It was just as valid a point as the question you asked or you wouldn't have felt the need to ask it. The same point I was trying to make was asked in question form in post #14. Does he need to stop posting as well?

 

i'll throw in another company. AST. another company that has good rep. they bought Moton, and hopefully they will cross design some shock/spring combos.

but if not, like the group, koni/gc

 

I just put skunk2 sport shocks on my eg hatch with older skunk2 coils and they are awesome. nice stiff ride with no bounces. If ur on a budget do this set up. Find some used coils but i would get new shocks. I paid $270 for the shocks and you can prob find coils for around $100 or $150.

 

If skunk2 sport shocks are $270 why wouldn't you buy koni SRT. which are $300 and have a lifetime warranty? Or spend another $100 and get koni sports which have a lifetime warranty, and can handle much stiffer rates for anyone who might get into casual autocross?

Not to mention both are rebuild-able to stiffer valving. I'm not sure if you can re-valve skunk2 shocks.

 

Function form type2! Ihave this on my eg.i had type1 before, the only problem I had,they ware stollen but you'll b pleased..
My setup..type2, blackworks2 lcas..

 

im ordering koni/ground control with the top hats
