New Koni GTS Coilovers
I searched and was surprised that there is no posts related to this. Looks like Koni has launched their new GTS Coilovers and has fitment for the GR/BRZ.
https://shop.koni-na.com/producttech...i0FsPUDHC5-8Q4 Has anyone tried these yet? |

Too bad their website doesn't seem to tell you anything actually important about them. I can't find any hard specifications.

Few more specs received
The overall stroke of the dampers is 127mm in the front, and 116mm in the rear. The kit allows for 20mm – 55mm of lowering from the factory ride height. |

Holding off for more reviews but I don't think Koni will ever release a bad product. I've used Koni Yellows x H&Rs on 2 of my previous cars with no issues. Last edited by Fishbone; 10-25-2024 at 09:10 PM. |

It may not be a bad product but it’s hard to tell what they’re good for without knowing spring rates, twin tube vs monotube, re-valvability, and what the adjustment knob is supposed to do. They didn’t even bother putting up marketing damper dynos.

Got a reply from KONI.
The GTS dampers are produced in our main production facility in Holland, on the same lines as our Sport, and Special ACTIVE dampers. The bodies are powder coated, and the threads have black e-coating (KPL) for ultimate corrosion protection. Mason O’Hara Product Specialist KONI - an ITT company |
