I just put the Koni Yellows on my car with H&R Sport Springs. The Konis are adjustable by turning the **** for soft or firm performance. I believe they are supposed to turn a full 2 turns, but only one of mine does. The other 3 corners turn exactly 1 and 3/4ths of a turn. Is there something that I missed?

 

1.75 is correct

 

yep, if one turns 2 full turns, it might be messed up. 1.75 turns is correct.

 

Are you sure? I've had two sets over the last 5 years and all mine turn a little more than 2.

 

Anyone else have this problem?

100% positive, 1.75 turns full soft to full firm. Mine and my friend's Konis are both like this. I seem to recall the Koni instructions stating this also, but I can't remember for sure.

 

my front ones probably is about 2.25 turns from soft to stiff where as my rear ones only require 1.75 turns...I'll double check later tho

 

I am going to call Koni on Monday and see what they say.

 

2.25 turns here too.

 

Just checked mine, definitely 1.75 turns on all 4 corners. I have the regular off-the-shelf Koni shocks, maybe the SP3 (Neuspeed) versions turn more than 2 turns?

 

mine is 1.75

 

my neupeed yellows(all 4) turn almost 2 turns. But more than 1.75. Maybe 1.9. Sorry now this thread is more confusing

 

does it matter if they are yellows or reds???

 

Koni Sports (yellow) are externally adjustable via a **** placed on top of the shock piston.

Koni Specials (red) are not externally adjustable. You can adjust between 3 different damping settings, but you have to remove the shock, compress the piston all the way down, and then turn the piston to change the setting.

 

SO I GUESS THE YELLOWS ARE BETTER STYLE/QUALITY!

Koni Sports are much more versatile than the Specials, and can handle a wider range of spring rates. I'm pretty sure they are not affected by amount of drop, either.
