Shock absorbers KONI or Monroe

My Corrado has Koni yellow shocks at stock height and the rebound/stiffness is set right in the middle. It's a pain to adjust the rear stiffness, but somebody sells low profile knobs for them. The car is in storage so I don't remember if the rear spring perches are adjustable. I do remember that the car rides great and I can just adjust the stiffness in a few minutes (on the front anyway) if I want to corner flatter.

I bought a set of adjustable koni yellows with vogtland springs for my jetta for $40. No idea how old they are, but throw on the stiff setting and they rock corners pretty well.

H&R OE Sports. Only lowered .75 inch (or so). I love my Koni Yellows.

Finished the install today. Everything is perfect. Eibach prokit + koni Str.t shocks = perfection for NJ roads under $600. 26" ftg all around and ride is a great middle ground between coilovers and stock suspension. Rides like a stock gti. Which is exactly what I wanted. No floatiness, but you don't lose your fillings going over bumps. Very controlled and balanced ride. This is a fantastic pairing and you will not be disappointed.

Original owner of a 2005 Reflex Silver 5MT 4Motion GLS wagon. Currently with 108,xxx miles. It has all options available for that year plus now with several mods incl: Votex ground effects kit and W8 rear bumper (painted to match) H&R lowering springs and Koni shocks Revo ECM flash (pushing about 21 psi boost)

The last GTI I drove was my 337 with coil overs. But I would never do anything that harsh again on a DD. The MS3 has been highly regarded for its handling since day one (although I can safely say the 1st gen shocks were poor - I just had Koni FSDs put in and it's night and day).

i have the double bellow bags and koni oranges which tend to be a lot cheaper than the yellows becuase they do not have adjustable dampening. they give me plenty of height in the rear.

I just got some and they are amazing (not to mention cheap)!!

At 100,000km I did Koni STR.T shocks, Eibach springs and a Progress rear sway bar. It's a riot to drive with decent tires now however I'm not overly impressed with the Konis, they don't have the best small-bump feel but the car feels ridiculously planted 100% of the time and stays flat through corners.

Those Koni's rusted out quickly on an old integra I had. Seemed cheap out of the box. Have had several Bilstein setups. Never an issue.
