i have some ground controls and koni yellows,..but just blew my koni's didnt really care for the koni's. which shocks will fit the ground controls? what shock shoould i go with?

 

If Konis did not work out for you, check out Bilsteins. My buddy in the VW scene says they're great, and I've heard good things in the Honda community as well. It's a different type of damper, which many find superior to Koni, but it's all preference.

 

Koni specific GC sleeves won't work with other shocks (to my knowledge).

Time for new Konis, or a different set of sleeves to go with the different choice in shocks.

 

References?

Meaning like written statements on the net.

 

don't koni yellows have a lifetime warranty? i like my koni/gc combo

 

i need to look into that

 

damn that sucks if its true

 

bilsteins??...like the ones you can buy at autozone??

 

Ship those Koni's back and get them revalved.
Then you'll have the best combo .. Koni/Ground Control!

This thread is great, and the OP is really specific in his comparisons and although he ran into some problems with his setup (that was ultimately fixed), his reviews were fair.

The last post on this page contains a pretty good review, as well:

Bilsteins are quality shocks, as are Konis, but, from what I've read, since their "sport" shocks different in design (monotube vs. twin-tube), it's mostly up to driver preference. I am, however, basing this on second-hand information, since I've never ridden in a car equipped with Bilsteins.

 

call koni and inquire on the life time waranty.

 

Know that one, thought you had other experience topics.

Thanks anyway.

 

I rode in a car with bilsteins but it was a vdub. Rode good, i honestly couldnt tell you a difference from koni and bilstien.
