Koni yellows

[SiR]

Would these shocks be a good match for Pedder's springs? How much would they set me back?

Also, what's the difference between the yellows and the adjustables? I know the adjustables are just that, adjustables, but are there any other differences or are they the same thing - Koni yellows, reds etc.?

Thanks.

koni yellows are all adjustables...they are damper adjustable.
reds are not damper adjustable. my yellow konis for my dcs cost me about $900-1000 for 2 pairs. can't remember exactly how much. i got them fitted my at my cousins garage. saved a good $3-400 in labour.

there is no reason why they wont fit with pedder springs, given that the springs are made to fit your car.

reds are adjustable too... it's just that you need to remove them to adjust them, which is a pita.

a lot of the rear Yellows also need to be removed to adjust them

olny if you dont want to remove the reAr speaker?

not in a dc2.
the speaker doesn't need to come either. in fact, the plastic trim in the boot has two plastic covers that clip into place that are perfect for adjusting yellows.

the civics need the rear speaker taken out, which could be annoying i guess...

oh - are we talking about dc2's?

Not for the 4 doors.......you just have to peel back some carpet :)

Thanks, I got the message Luzinit! :P

:lol:

for the EM1: yeah u just pull the interior from the sides. dun worry, it won't rip cos it's pretty hard shit. they aren't fixed so u dun need to undo anything. just pull away!
i just leave it pulled down since i dun wanna cut holes in it for my strut bar...looks shit but hey, i don't like damage =P

and for some reason, my fronts only have 2 height settings. i was told there's meant 2 b 3. emailed top performance once to ask y but no reply. haven't gotten ard 2 chasing this up...

[luzinit]

hey taxi-r. thats normal man.

Afaik, the back.. 3 settings, 15mm above stock perch, stock, and 15mm lower. the front is either stock height, or 25mm lower.. mine is on the lowest front and rear and the front is alot lower than the back, 0 finger gap, back has 2 finger gap! been reading on Hondatech and found out its normal as well, 3adjustments read, 2 front :)

[Taxi-R]

it's normal hey? i wonder y top performance told me it was 3...dumbasses! and supposedly they r the "distributors" for australia...

what springs u on luzinit? cos i'm on the middle in the rear and i have 1 finger gap. i'm on eibach pro kits. i reckon if i lower to the lowest perch in the rear (front is on lower one too), my rear might possibly be a tad lower than the front.

[luzinit]

are u serious?? im on prokits too, and they are meant to have a 35mm drop, which for me on the middle rear, gave 3 finger gap!. pm me ur msn or something, i wanna see wat ur drop is like, are u sure its prokit?? or have u got the sportlines?

[Taxi-R]

well i got 17's and 205/40 rubber. not sur eabt urs tho. shouldn't b that much diff anyway. don't u hate it when u spend so much money and it's still not the way u want it?? :cry:
my front is a bit low...would prefer same 1 finger gap...
btw, u have PM
