Hmmm, getting there. I've read that Koni's are a bit softer than Bilsteins in the beginning of the bump. Plus, they are adjustable to compensate for wear. Not planning to autocross this one however, so I'm not sure if it's justified. My old 83 242 would have been fun for that, much better balance. Too bad it's probably the size of a small refrigerator by now.
Regardless, I can go hunting for turbo sways and I'm not sure if I want "sport springs," I sorta like the stock height.
I'll wait to see if there are any more opinions on this. Thanks, so far.
