How much should they be? I have no clue.


RE: Ebay Bargain - Brand New Koni Shocks - Toms306 - 08-02-2015

The yellow ones are about £100 each shock new iirc. I had a set on the 1.4 back in the day, I didn't buy them though. Not sure whats different about the red ones though.

I might bid on them, any one now how they adjust?


RE: Ebay Bargain - Brand New Koni Shocks - Connor - 08-02-2015

If only I had the money lol


RE: Ebay Bargain - Brand New Koni Shocks - Anton - 08-02-2015

Difference between red and yellow?


RE: Ebay Bargain - Brand New Koni Shocks - miles - 08-02-2015

Red ones never used to adjust as it's the entry level one, The yellows do either by the top or a Koni pain in the arse way of twisting the spindle which means stripping them down


RE: Ebay Bargain - Brand New Koni Shocks - vinny - 09-02-2015

i had konis on my 306 u have to push the rods right in then you rotate them upto 720 degrees to get full hard setting so you basically take front struts off and remove spring to adjust them easier on the rear but same sketch piston in untill bottom of stroke then rotate upto 720 . ididnt like them way too much rebound just gone to bilstein b6 not tryed them yet but got them on my m3 and they ace on there

that was yellow koni when i bought them they were 250 for all 4 and a pair of front springs

I won the red ones, hope they do adjust or I'll be complaining to the seller for sure.

Going by the Yellow Konis on a 205, they're rock hard (the rears especially). Great for making the back end of a 205 slide on a track, not sure about the road though.

Well done mate! Super cheap there!


RE: Ebay Bargain - Brand New Koni Shocks - Seb_Ryan - 09-02-2015

Chris by the looks they are adjustable, just not the easy way lol

I wouldn't say rock hard (have had cheap shite worse!) but they are stiffer yeah, rears made rear end even more skippy over rough ground. Fronts were adjustable by a little round thing on top of the shock iirc, but I don't know if they're all the same.

Oh dear, I'll have to guess how I want them because I'm not stripping them every week to decied how I want them.


RE: Ebay Bargain - Brand New Koni Shocks - welshpug - 09-02-2015

RE: Ebay Bargain - Brand New Koni Shocks - Chris_90 - 11-02-2015

you got new shocks for £50? Stop moaning Big Grin


RE: Ebay Bargain - Brand New Koni Shocks - Sian - 11-02-2015

Ive just bought some bilstein b4 shocks ninja


RE: Ebay Bargain - Brand New Koni Shocks - RetroPug - 11-02-2015

These should be a direct fit for a 306?
Anyone know what sort of damping rates these are relative to standard and how good they are?

Also, assuming this is the rear damper to suit?
