Koni Threaded Spring Perches. ??

http://www.panducky.com/Koni-Threade..._336-523.html#

Just wondering if anyone has any experience with these? Seems like a good option for those who have spring/strut combo vs coilover setup and looking for ride height adjustability. Also, would the Tanabe GF210s fit on these?

1) It sounds like they are only made for the Koni (yellow) sport dampers.
Do you already have a set?

2) No, they will not work well with the Tanabe GF210 springs.

There wsa this place called dave turner motorsport that had these clamps that supposrt the bottom of the spring. Im not sure if they are still in business

For the old datsun's and corollas people weld on a ring so the threaded sleeve has something to sit on. Dave turner sold clamps, so you dont have to weld. I heard they held up, but I have no personal experience

So why would I get this + hypercoils instead of the GC kit?

I guess the GC is cheaper and more popular? Though I like the fact that you can use 2.25" springs with this one.
