The Koni rear in the GC kit (monotube) is different than the Koni Sports (twin tube).

RCE is a 2-way setup. GC is a 1-way setup. There's nothing wrong with GC's setup.

Quick update on adjusting the GC Koni rears: on advice from GC, I rotated the entire shock body rather than the rod. That required jacking the car, removing the bottom mount bolt, getting the bottom eyelet / heim joint out of the LCA, etc, etc. Forty-five minutes of work for 30 seconds of adjustment. Maybe there's a better way, but it worked, and I suppose I'm more comfortable with that approach than undoing the top locking nuts(s). Pain in the a--, but that's the nature of this particular beast.
