NY Koni 1125 1036

Anyone have this kit? How is it compared to stock? I have a 2006 GT i m pretty sure the rear shocks are blown.

Those are the newer Koni non-adjustable OE replacement shocks with Eibach Pro-Kit springs. It will drop the ride height around 1.1” -1.2” once settled. Seems like a decent setup for a street car.

For a street car that has to deal with America's smooth roads. Would u stick with the above setup koni orange and the h and r springs they come with. Or would u rather kyb and stock springs or Bilstein with stock springs. I m not going to the track. My stock setup is bottoming out in the rears. So just wanted to improve handling and keep ride nice. Usually stock stuff is more expensive. I d even consider the h and r springs or eibach.

Koni offers some great bang for the buck damping control. I would go with he yellows. The range of adjustability is large and at full soft will ride as good as the STR.

The yellow usually have enough rebound control to handle springs as much a 2x stock if not more.

Did you end up running these shocks? There are little to no posts to be found on these. Was thinking about trying them out with Racing Beat springs.
