initially i was planning on going with a shock/ spring set up and read tons of good reviews about the koni/ tein setup... after realizing the price was pretty much the same as tein basics i was wondering if i should just go with the tein coilovers.....

any opinions would be awesome- especially the track/suspension guru's

I have koni / s techs and I love the combo.

Read this thread well. It answers your question.

I myself, am using Koni + H-tech with success. Car is daily driver and sees a track day about every 6 weeks.

great read thanks south FL read a few threads back by dpe but never came across that one!

what setting are you guys using for your koni's?

SouthFL

From full soft; 50% stiff front, 25% stiff rear.

sorry to hijack but I'm about to buy new shocks, and can ride height be changed using the Konis?

LiL BenNy

^ dont think so but dont quote me on it..

for those voting for the basics can you shed some light? ex if you track the car and how often

as for the the tein s/h tech springs... i know they lower the car but do the konis themselves lower the car further?

SouthFL

No. Only rebound is adjustable.

LiL BenNy

no in put from the tein basic users?
