I wrote to Koni to see when they will have shocks available for the TSX and this was the response i recieved.

"The shocks for the TSX should become available in about a month. Thanks
for writing."

My Dad is running adjustable Koni's in his SLK and they are amazing. Certainly a worthwhile upgrade.

 

sounds good to me! credit card on standby

 

o man, this is going to put me in the poor house

 

already there.... already there

new wheels + tires put me in a hole

 

another quote from a Koni rep

"This will be the externally adjustable for rebound damping Sport shocks
for the car."

 

That's what my Dad is running. Dial it up for Auto-X and dial it down for the ride home....

 

sounds good to me. how is the ride?

 

The ride can be anywhere from practically rock solid to softer than stock with 9 steps in between.

GOOD NEWS man... TOO Bad those would be at least $650 Koni yellow

 

I'm waiting for the shocks to install my springs. I'm wondering how easy it is to adjust the rear shocks...

 

it will be a pain lol

 

okay so basically shocks will prevent rubbing of the tires once someone has installed springs? im new to the whole suspension thing.. but im not tryin to rub my tires.. and on top of that i dont wanna worry too much about how much extra peeps i have in my car and bla bla bla.. basically i want better handling and that damn gap b/w the wheel and the body to shorten.

 

Shocks won't help much with wheel rub. The only thing that can prevent wheel hub is to choose a wheel width and offset that doesn't stick out beyond the fender.

 

I think it helps in some cases because you lowered your car (consider everything is in spec) and you still use your OEM shocks. One day you put 4 ppl in it and went over bump and you heard sth. I'm sure it's also because the OEM cannot cope with the lowered and more progressive wound sprigs so it tends to bottom out?
correct me if i'm wrong.

 

Bottoming out is one thing but wheel rub is another. You can bottom out the stock wheel setup without rubbing.

 

why kind did you get? or you mean you waiting for shock to be release on the market ?

 

I have springs and camber kits already. Just waiting for shocks so I can install them at the same time. Btw, I have Neuspeed sports and Eibach sports. Not sure which one to use until shocks are available so I can evaluate them back to back.

 

The Eibach sports are a greater drop than the Neuspeeds, I would think you would compare the Eibach ProKit w/ the Neuspeed Sports.

 

I thought about the Eibach pro kit first because it was the only springs available. However, after seeing how they look on other members car, I decided I need something with a larger drop front than the rear. I'm sure they are good springs but just not the right setup for me.
