well if you can figure out which one is the oe perch height, then just measure the distance from that perch to the highest perch. Subtract that length from 2" and you should have your answer.

With neuspeed race spring, use the middle(stock) perch on the koni yellows. If you set it to the highest perch it will look gay.

My friend set his Neuspeed Konis on the top perch w/ his Neuspeed race springs, mainly to keep the Azenis tires from rubbing, but the drop looks perfect.

The top perch should be stock height for the front, and the middle perch is stock in back. The top perch in back should be about 15mm (5/8") higher than stock.

So get Koni-specific Ground Controls w/ custom rates so you can get the drop exactly where you want it. The Koni perches by themselves don't go higher than stock on the front shocks.
