ok bout 2 order new suspension set up iv been doing my research and got my answers so now im just wondering what you guys think of my 2 main options its either Koni yellows with four top hats and ground controls or Ksports pro


any input will be very appreciated

Bare in mind that custom spring rates may be acquired with either one of these setups and also that koni offers a lifetime warranty vs ksports one year.

Ksports main advantage is their perch adjustabilty but that's about it.

Looking forward to ur responses ppl and please educated inputs preferred.

:P

I voted for KSports, You have adjustable perchs, Pillow ball top mounts(so if you wreck the car, you dont ruin your struts). You can also control how much damping they do, From a more comptable setting to a Race Ready Super Firm Setting. Password JDM says they have a Bulit in Camber kit, however I dont see that being applicable to EG suspension setups.

Koni Yellows and Ground Control Coils have been around forever and have been proven awesome. However if it was around the same Money I would personally get the Ksports.

But you can also adjust the Konis the same as the ksports in terms of dampening. I drove cars with both setups and the koni's feel more aggressive than the ksports, but unfortunately that's not always a good thing. Its annoying around the city
