GB: Koni Single Adjustables & Ground Control

[tonytony]

if the total cost comes out to under 500 with shipping i'm in, is your distributor in CA also?

[Jordan]

I'm down for a "1. Complete e30 Coilover Kit "

I'm 1-2months out from purchasing though.

Are the rear Koni's the top adjustable variant, like the fronts? Or are they the standard "twist-tube" model? I might be interested in a pair of rears, if they're the top adjustable ones. I have the other kind in the rear, I could just sell them.

Josh, I dont care if mine are top or bottom adjustable. If these are top - buy them and sell me yours.

Depending on what kind of pricing he gets, I just might take you up on that.

Just so everyone knows - I just installed a set of the top adjustable Koni shocks from Ground Control and the rear shock shaft is not a stock size. It's a bit larger and I had to drill out my mounts to 15/32 (or 12mm). GC sells custom rear mounts for around $90 per pair. However, I'm not too sure the actual Konis for this GB are the GC ones or just the standard Koni SAs.

same here. Hopefully you can keep the GB open for a little bit

I can do another GB later on at the beginning of next year. Though my distributor is doing a Koni re-stock and this will end up being the best opportunity for a Koni GB because we are both ordering a large amount. The more everyone buys, the better off everyone is (from a business stand-point).

I'm still working on getting some pricing on the short-bodied GC part numbers for the GB (if possible), though I should know tomorrow on those. I'm having a little trouble with people returning my calls.

The Konis included with the GB will be based on the standard body struts/shocks, HOWEVER they will be placed on the shock dyno and will be revalved to match your spring rates. Unless you are ordering replacements only, you will receive custom-valved Konis with your complete kit.

[Slyder]
