They are value for money and i am very happy with their performance both on the road and out on the track.

Do some search. There's actually some reviews around on them.

For a car you drive daily, they are comfortable. I'm happy with mine. Are you getting aftermarket springs as well?
$670 sounds like a good deal.

Hey I recently installed some Koni Yellows on my 92 LS, one word for you...

YES :)

I've got them mated with the stock springs at the moment which really isolates the difference they have made. You can also see the visual difference before and after in my intro thread here:

Go to the last page to see the "after" and read my opinions on the Konis too!

I think you'll be happy with the purchase, and the price (even tho ur apparently to supposed to mention that) is mighty fine :D

I have Koni Yellow on my DC5R, they are very firm. My front Koni's were leaking although has been rebuilt under warranty.

I got Koni yellow with whiteline springs bang for your buck...
Make sure you set soft for normal street driving as stiff setting can be very uncomfortable to drive on a day to day

How hard is it to change the settings on them when they are on the car?
Yes,just turn the knob :)

whiteline springs, and koni yellows here as well.
i put rears on 3/4 and front 1/2 for st drving to me, it's perfect, anymore, not comfortable, unless on a really smooth road, which in sydney, does not exist.

Ye I don't know how or why people run the front on 100% hard.
Way too harsh for anything but perfect surfaces.
Plus with fwd it tends to make it understeer more.

with the Koni Yellows, it will take you a while to get the right settings for road and for track. The tricky bit is Koni's are turns whereas most coilovers are click adjustments.

i agreed that 100% are way too harsh even on the track. i was running 1.5 for the rears and 1 for the fronts. IMO, its harder to get the ideal front setup than the rears.
