Re: Anyone have the Koni Sport Kit (Springs & Dampers)?

I've ordered them and should receive soon, I'll write review after they're installed

Where did you order them from, mehc?

Re: Anyone have the Koni Sport Kit (Springs & Dampers)?

summitracing.com, pretty good price like 580$
But the shipping to canada was costly, ~80$us

Does Koni describe the spring rates that come with the kit? I bought the kit for my other car, but Koni never said how stiff the springs are.

+1 as i am getting the yellows and springs in the next week

 

[mehc]

I can't wait to get rid of these bump stopping stock shocks with MS springs. Hate it.

 

[travicon]

Vogtland makes the springs, the rates are 970/890 (v/h) in kg. At least I believe that's the rates, I can't read German. http://php.vogtland.com/get_pdf.php?name=52XT0659-00.pdf

can anyone read german?

 

[*Angel-Of-Darknes*]

Permissible axle load (v/h) in kg

thats what it reads.
on another note I would love to know the rates also, but vogtland doesnt give them out just like H&R. You gotta figure it out yourself.

 

[travicon]

hmmm...thats odd. usually, when there are 2 different numbers separated by the slash, it is differentiating between front and rear. and the front is higher due to the engine being in the front

 

[mehc]

The dealer tells me I need a link kit for the front struts. «whats that about? He told me the stock ones will break in 1 week

 

[Midnight_Speeder]

Link kit?

I haven't heard of this. Maybe camber links? If so, then get an SPC/Eibach one, if completely neccessary. The drop is relatively close to the Pro-Kit, therefore I'm not sure what he means by that.

 

[mehc]

No, the camber kit is being installed at the same time..
I went to canadian tire and the guy showed me a `link kit`
Its like a big screw with plastic stuff. Anyway thought it would have come with the kit itself..

 

[Midnight_Speeder]

Canadian Tire? Where abouts are you?

Anyhow, how much did it run you, mehc?

 

[biped]

1. never heard of anyone needing a link kit with strut installation

2. your dealer is bullshitting you

3. get your ass away from can-tire

Yeah guy, they might use your stock antenna against you....if you know what I mean.

 

[mehc]

Well I just got home with a 1990 tempo (they're keeping the car overnight to finish the install)
I dunno about that link kit stuff..he says the shock is stiffer so it won't last more than 2 weeks
