Koni Yellow Shocks - Full Front Replacements - Released
 
Koni has finally done it. Gone are the days of hassling with inserts. There is now a drop in solution for upgrading your stock struts to the adjustable Koni Yellows. Simply add springs and go. I know a lot of people were waiting for these just like we were. :)

Hah won't the WRX guys be jealous. I think they have been asking for those for about 12 years now...

Also curious on the price. Is that what they retail for? Or is this an introductory offer?

Installed these on my brother's FRS last week.
They fit great and he likes them a lot.

Did inserts on my old Si. While it was a fun learning experience it's probably one I could do without repeating.

Great to see true yellow struts available for us. I shudder to think of lowering this car, but if I do this is probably the route I'll go.

Thanks for helping to bring a great product to the community. And... your advisory warning is rather hilarious.:thumbsup:

"Please note, Koni may have the absolute worst packaging on the planet [...] please do not expect gold plated struts. If you want those, go for the Bilsteins."

Did you reuse the stock springs?

JasperNoone 08-15-2014 01:36 AM

Hm, do these raise the front by a little bit just like the inserts do?

Bigbadvoodooguru 08-15-2014 03:54 AM

he has lowering springs. They were previously installed on the stock shocks for a bit while he saved up money.

Finally ALL YELLOW KONI's. :D

I've disappointed after Koni inserts installed because it is black! :iono:
