Shocks..what is best for our RX7?

Hi Guys,

My Bilstein front right suspension needs removal. Was thinking of getting Koni adjustables. What you guys think? Was getting the Bilstein again, but the Koni ones seem to be excellent.

Also, im changing the entire 4 shocks so that i'll have Koni's throughout. Any ideas?

Please help.

Wanted to also ask, how shall i set them up? Shall i set them up hard all throughout to have better road grip?


Thanks

Matthew

I'm planning on getting the Koni Yellow adjustables when I upgrade my shocks, heard very good things about them.

As far as setup, I'd suggest playing with the settings for the street to get a good balance of ride comfort/performance. If you autocross or do HPDE, you'll want to firm them up and adjust from there.

I have the Koni yellows and have been very happy with them for street and HPDE use.
