Shock absorbers KONI or OEM Toyota

KONI Shock absorbers

I have Koni Yellows and stock springs on my '93 Corrrado SLC (VR6) that's in storage. I put the dampening right in the middle and they rode great and my Corrado handled great.

Pros: rode great, handled great
Vehicle: Volkswagen Corrado

i'm currently running Koni oranges (STR.T) with Tein H-techs which are a very mild upgrade spring. they'll feel like stock with a bit more control and have a lifetime warranty. i'm told they feel like a Koni yellow on full soft, and they don't involve cutting - direct replacement. i have almost 30k miles on mine and they groan sometimes in the cold but are otherwise holding up just fine.

Pros: more control, lifetime warranty, direct replacement, holding up fine
Cons: groan in cold
Vehicle: Honda Civic
Mileage: 30000 km

Definitely recommend the koni yellows. They’re adjustable but like mentioned before you have to cut the oem front strut to install them. They’re actually an insert but the rears are a simple drop in. Forgot to add they also come with a lifetime warranty as long as you keep the receipt. Had mine for 6 years and one of the drivers blew out and I sent it back and they replaced it free of charge just had to pay to ship it to them but return shipping was free.

Pros: adjustable, lifetime warranty, free replacement
Cons: requires cutting OEM strut, one blew out
Vehicle: Honda Civic

Bought some Koni Special Active s truts and shocks (hoping to get softer-than-stock ride on all the high-frequency cracks and potholes) and also looking to replace all the coil springs.

Pros: softer-than-stock ride
Vehicle: Volkswagen New Beetle

I had Koni adjustable yellows on mine. It was great. I could dial softer for better ride then stiffen it up for fun.

Pros: better ride, stiffen for fun
Vehicle: Honda

I installed them with the ECS 23mm bar. In retrospect I can't justify the additional price over say a Bilstein B6 (I installed those on my previous Jetta). I thought they would be smoother/more expensive riding than the Bilsteins, but you can still pick up every little expansion joint and imperfection in the road....unless that's what you are going for.

Pros: improves cornering
Cons: feel every imperfection
