Blue Notch

Still debating if I should send back my tokicos and get the konis instead.

Depends on the price difference and which konis your going with. If they are yellows, then definently. I don't know anything about the srts (I think what they are)

cdynaco

Strano always says that the srt.t's are a definite improvement over stock. But they're not adjustable.

I remember some of the Bullit guys wanted a better shock but didn't want to make a harsh ride. Stockers are actually a decent mix of comfort and road handling.
So some tried the adjustable and could never quite find a setting they liked. Either too firm and jarring or too soft and bouncy. But IIRC most liked the srt.t ride. That's all I know.

Can't afford the yellows. The STR.Ts would be $14 cheaper than I paid for the Tokico HPs. Unless Paul can get them for me for under $324 shipped.

Have until 2am to decide. http://www.maximummotorsports.com/st...oducts_id=1362

Well, depending on how your rate it, in my book everything is better then stock. I just don't know how they compare with tokico hp blues and the such. I know they are konis which could be good, especially if they can be rebuilt down the line.

Nathan, imo its truly up to you. There could be that added benefit of the konis being able to be rebuilt so that could save you some doh in the future. That would be something to look into. You can typically send the konis off and have them rebuilt for almost half the cost or so...

I don't think one will be better then the other in terms of performance.

cdynaco

That's a good point. But since Koni is always back ordered - how many months would a rebuild take?? lol

Better save your old ones Nathan so you could at least drive while they're being rebuilt.

1999Pony

This is true. My neighbor had his yellows rebuilt about 2 years ago and it took close to a month, but it was hell of a lot cheaper then buying new. So I don't know. Its one of those chances you kinda have to take

It's been bugging me all day. I think I'd rather have the Konis but I don't know if they're worth the trouble. But then I don't want to regret not getting them.

cdynaco

329 seems like a good price for the konis.

1999Pony

If that's what you want, just get them. You regret it if you don't.

Blue Notch

$324. Wish Paul were here to see if he could give me a quote.

I just want to know if it's worth it. If it's not then it's just a waste of my time.

Keep in mind you're changing many things - so you might not be able to tell which component is giving you the ride you want.

If your struts/dampers are old or worn, I'd think it would be messed up with new springs and spongy old struts/dampers.

1999Pony

Like I said, I don't think your gonna see much if any difference between the 2. But if you really want them then get em.

Blue Notch

Why does this have to be so hard? lol

I say just stick with what you got, they will still be good and you'll still enjoy the crap out of them.

nice one

Rather B.Blown

So indecisive and wishy washy. Not that its bad, I always wanted a daughter.


Boom!! 20 pts for you.
