Hello,

I tried searching but didn't get a definitive answer on what is the best adjustment for Koni Sport shocks with an Eibach Pro-kit. Can anyone help me out? I am having a set installed tomorrow and need to have at least the rear's set up right as I understand it's pretty hard to get to once installed. I will be setting it up for aggresive street and some track driving. Thanks a lot!

My shop adjusted them for me, but just to let you know I am thoroughly enjoying the Koni/Eibach set up! You are in for a treat!

 

If you're not expecting to get to the rear adjustments often, a good starting point might be halfway counterclockwise (half firm).

That way, based on how much camber offset you have front-to-back, what sway bar and settings, as well as your driving style, you can adjust the fronts somewhat above halfway (reducing oversteer), or somewhat under halfway (inducing oversteer).

Note that the number of turns is less for the rear than for the front.

Once you get a feel for the relative positions, you could go back later and set the rears more closely to what you like, still leaving room to adjust the fronts.

 

Thanks for the quick replies!!

I forgot to mention that I will be running an H&R 19mm swaybar with this. Probably set to the softer setting while on the road and to the harder setting while on track.

I am running -1.5 camber at the rear and will be doing the same once all the parts are installed. Rear toe is 0 degrees and front tow is 1/16" toe out. Front camber is stock as I don't have camber plates.

By the way, I normally drive hard on the road, but since we have bad roads here, I will go with the softer swaybar setting for the streets.

i thought those yellow's came with presets for "hot date" and "weekend auto-x" or something...

 

kenchan,

What do you mean by this?? Is there a secret magic spell I have to do to my konis to turn into an FSD shock?
