Koni Yellow Shocks with Ground Control Coilovers REVIEW 

How are they? I'm interested as well about koni yellows.

+Jason Lee I am planning on it. I might even have something special in the works for headers... We shall see...

+John Burns I will be doing this in the future yes.

Knowledge!

+MrStarbi thanks for the sub! I have a magnaflow muffler which I like a lot. Take a look at my older videos for a couple clips on it.

+Apex Animal I have the 2.5 motor! So actually even closer. I have my front sway at the softest setting and rear at stiffest. I'm going to play around with this a lot though as I prep for next season.

+UncleShrek Sanchez check out the install video for these on my channel. You can see the car sitting on them at the end. It will be lower then sport suspension for sure.

Yes. But you wouldn't need the adjustable ride height so just get koni yellows and some lowering springs that are well matched.

venerated I have Honda accord cl7. stock shocks and 50mm lowering springs. at the moment ride feels sh*t. was advised to get koni shocks. thinking to buy them now. hope will be better comfort ride

Koni yellow, or Bilstein b8's.

Definitely get Koni Special Active if they have a set for your car. Cheaper than yellows but improves both the handling and ride compared to stock. Gives a lot of driver confidence also. Failing that Koni STR.T (orange) are also very good dampers. They're effectively Koni yellow at full soft (still higher rebound than stock) and ride very well. You only need yellows if you feel you need the adjustment. Like if you go to the track for example.

This isn't something that is easily done, and there is no kit. The S54 (m3 engine) comes with them but it is carefully engineered from the ground up for them. Its not a simple swap, and purchasing 6 throttle bodies and fabricating the intake system sounds very complicated and probably not worth the effort. Take a look at this thread. forum.e46fanatics.com/showthread.php?t=704471

+Richard Price you'll notice it the most in the front but if you think your fronts are shot your rears definitely are!

thanks I'm working on 1969 mopar pro touring style my leaf springs / disk brakes and bigger tires. the next thing I'm planing is fuel injection conversion / thinking of maybe doing air bags in the back with a 3 link and on a budget so it makes easyer for now to do as little as possible all at one time and spread out the cost but have a safe one ps. my back one are ok for now but leaking a little would i be be able to notice a differents ? or not realy

+Andi Selaj just added to description

I've had the exact opposite experience with my koni's. Been going strong for over 30k with eibach pro kit lowering springs. If you've saved your receipt, koni has a lifetime warranty.

@@maynarddrivesfast804 lifetime warranty! I am sold.

sounds like install error. Nobody else has issues with Koni's after 15k miles...

+Nik Polc I would look for something 2002 and up. Then you can get the facelift front end (like mine) and you have less of a chance of a cracked subframe. 325 is a good bet.

i'd fix the subframe on any bmw with the turner kit on any car driven hard

get more caster not camber unless u wanna rotate tires every event

+Rebecca Santos I had an alignment done yea. I might look for some adjustable camber plates so i can dial in a lot of negative for the track then back it off on the street. (After getting proper measured settings for each) need that camber to offset tire wear

as far as camber plates: cheap ones work fine but poland makes good ones for not-500 bucks. as far as changing camber (doing a full alignment) every time you go to the track - or chasing the toe-out by sight every time you track it tears up your tires really fast--- its an unrealistic goal. if you look at some of those m3s prepped for going to the Nordschleife on weekends they track them at 2to3 degrees neg up front and drive home on the same shoes. You should only go with -3deg or more if you are really using proper A7s, R7s, or similar slicks. So -1.8 is just fine for mixed use with frequent rotations on a square stance. I notice a better compromise (more steering feel and less understeer) from positive caster then neg camber. forum.e46fanatics.com/showthread.php?t=667507

+Rebecca Santos I was never planning on going more than -3 degrees. But even that I've read can wear tires on the road. (Not too severely though.) your responses on my channel are the most informed I have read and I really appreciate you contributing to the discussion. Keep it up!

Haha, I noticed that too. Only Europeans say zed to pronounce the letter Z. (Example-watch a Top Gear episode).
