I have just had my Koni dampers back from their technical group who have tested them with HKS uprated springs to check damping capability (similar spec to Eibach). At 1 full turn they control the springs well. They have also fitted a spring perch kit using the original perches and springs that gives you adjustability. You do not need to machine the black original Showa perch but their red collars were machined to locate the perch correctly. To strip down my shocks, test the springs and shocks, fit the sleeves and set up to original spec they charged

 

I did not know they were available? Are these brand new?

PS. Did you get your harness yet??? Just wondering...

 

Brand-Brand new - as in Koni hand built them for me 2 days ago. The sleeves should be easily ordered but you need to have a local machine shop make a lip to enable the S2K spring platform to be centred and held in place. The dampers are what everyone else is selling. Koni UK would probable make up a complete kit for you if you sent a perch over to them - they work with a lot of the motorsport teams and are really enthusiastic.
Oh, and I haven't received the harness yet - has it been sent? I have been reading up on this and you should be able to take a voltage off the harness for the No1 lambda probe to enable accurate air/fuel ratio readings before the cat. It also enables you to check if the ECU is going to loop out your corrections. I was thinking of running this into a data logger to check the 'As Is' for narrow and wide throttle settings before hooking up the APEX-I kit. Let me know when the harness is coming and any tracking details please.
