Koni shocks at a great price!!!!

yellaopelgt · 03-01-2006

Just got off the phone with with these guys and think I've found a super deal for Koni red shocks!! front and rears for 408.80 thats with the shipping included folks!!! Only downfall is 6-8 weeks shipping time from Holland, but, you cant beat the price!!!This guy went as far to call Holland and check these are the correct numbers and they ARE in stock! We'll see how this goes, I'm pretty confident that this is about THE BEST price available to the average Joe!! So if you are in the market for some killer shocks give them a call and see for yourself!

Joe that is really a good find...just wish i was in the position to be able to worry about the suspension right now...

just thinking about updating my suspension. do the koni reds really make a big difference compared to stock? just asking. also i see that opel source makes a $99 sport rear suspension bushing kit. has anyone used this and do you think it is worth it to install?

Not sure about the sport bushings, sounds like they would be best applied to the yellow shocks, as reds are strictly street shocks. You should do some research and see what others have to say about the Koni's, thats what made me pull the trigger on this one!!! Besides, i'll need all the help I can get trying to get the rear end to plant when I'm done!!! HEHE

I have used the bushing kit and it is a very good kit, I dont really know how much of a difference they actually made becuase when I replaced those I also replaced the shocks with high pressure kyb's and added a 3/4" ogts antisway bar, but with those modifications it really stiffened up the back end.

I did the same thing as Jordan did, except no swaybar yet. The rear suspension bushings from OGTS are the way to go. As far as the Kybs, check the reviews. It does have a firm ride now. I also have 205/60 13s all around. I have Koni Reds for the next one. HTH, Jarrell
