Couple of questions for those with either a set of Koni shocks and/or Blitz lowering springs:

 

1. On the rear shocks - which are adjusted my depressing the rod into the cylinder and turning. It shows in the instructions that the rod can be turned up to two complete revolutions for maximum stiffness. Is there a kind of end stop inside which stops you from turning too far? Likewise, can it be unscrewed too far? Just wanted to determine what setting they're currectly at already.

 

2. I figured out quite quickly which of the Blitz spring were for the front and which were for the back - but there are two things I'm not entirely happy about:

i. The rear spring is of a slightly different design to the original, where the top-last turn of the spring tapers to a much thinner bar thickness (but still fits the upper no problem)

ii. the bottom rear spring diameter (across the whole coil) is slightly larger than the original - and sits right on the edge of the spring seat (the new Koni seat is the same size as the original btw)

 

I bought these from Jonny @ GPS about two years ago, and have only just got around to fitting them, so I really hope they're the right springs!:-|

 

Having done a quick search on the forum before starting this thread, I notice a few of have this setup so did anyone else query the rear spring?

 

Cheers all!

I've got this setup but Peter at PPS fitted them for me.

He's done quite a few I think but he didn't mention having any problems.

I've just left the shocks on their middle settings for now but I heard you can't adjust the rears on the car but it's great as it is.

 

Will have the car back today so might be able to have a look for you.

Just answered my own first question: The shocks have come in their most damping position i.e fully unwound. And yes there is an end stop when turning the shafts.
