Also anyone running Konis on their cars? Thinking of picking up a set but have a feeling they are not what I want for this car. Great shocks though.

@Mark: Is that Tanabe you have on the race end of their range? I think the touring is a bit less aimed at all out gains. Tbh I'm thinking of just getting a stock one haha, I must be getting old.

The Gold Medallion isn't on their site anymore - but it looks more like the Medallion concept g than the touring:



I also have yellow Koni's with Eibach Pro springs. The Eibachs made the biggest difference TBH, but that may have been the shitety springs that came with the car... Thinking back, the Konis came with a set of springs too but they were super harsh - probably for the D16. The eibachs made a massive difference. But anyway, I like the Konis - you can dial in the stiffness to suit yourself. I went with half way front and back and then went a little stiffer at the front, then kept dialling in stiffness at the back it started letting go in bends. Then I slacked it off a bit after changing my underwear. It's a bit of a pain if you want to play with the ride height there is 3 different perch stops and you'll need a spring compressor ot change them, but I ended up putting mine back near stock as I spend most of my time in Dublin and the speed bumps are a curse.
