The std Koni is single adjustable and the rears are the old "compress & turn" style which means disassembling the coilover spring, total PITA. They have to be custom modified to convert to double externally adjustable

call Phil @ Truechoice, (888) 566-4722 ask for Koni Racing Services

He has done the Koni RX-8 hydraulic DA autox conversion for myself and several others, you will have to drop the rear shocks down to access the rear rebound adjuster though, no getting around it for a quality shock unless you do an inverted monotube racing shock which will cost you $$$$$, though this conversion with shocks isn't cheap either
