I don't know what these instructions are trying to tell me but can anyone tell me how to adjust the rear struts while they are on the car. It's probably something real simple and I'm just having a brain fart right now.

 

The ITR rear koni (model 8040-1078 SPORT same as the 88-91 CRX) can not be
adjusted once on the car since the shock has to be completly compressed in order
to adjust them.

 

You can send them to true choice and they can convert them so they are externaly adjustable... like 75 bux each.

 

its ture, konis are great but tough to adjust....

 

Well I really don't want to deal with sending them off anywhere. Is there a setting that I can put them at that works good for the autocross but ride good. Or am I going to have to give up the ride in the back for some good handling

 

I've checked on the price it is $125 each to be revalved and $250 to $300 for dual adjustable.

 

Well I'm planning on putting on the konis tommorow and I was trying to figure out what I should set the rears at for AutoX events. Any suggestions for me

 

I am waiting on mine so I have no exp with them, but what I have gotten from everyone I spoke to is to set them to max stiff and throw them in.

 

Anyone else with an suggestion for what to set the rears at? I got the fronts put on today with the spring perches on the top setting. I'm planning on doing the rears tommorow night so any help would be appreciated.

 

have you tried posting this question in the competition forum? lots of good info there, too.

 

Annie Gill (GSL National Champ) recommended 3/4 firm for rears on ITR Koni rears. That's what she and Ron Bauer set their shocks at on their R. Ron also drove the same car to 3rd in the 99 GS National Championships too so the settings must not be too far off.

 

I have mine set at 3/4 stiff in the rear as well.
With the fronts cranked up the ride is much worse than stock, but when you put the fronts on full soft the ride is comparable.

I have only done one Auto X since installing the Konis. Worked great. The tail is a little happier, but this can be adjusted with the fronts (stiffening them up). I also switched to Hoosiers this year, so I will be sorting things out for a bit.

 

I can't believe why so many people are still lusting after the konis when all these bullcrap would actually makes them more expeisnve.
