REALLY...? and for an X at that.. Koni USA didn't provide fronts for the X.. the alternative was to take your front struts, take them to TrueSports, and they would manufacture front Koni's using the OEM tubes and replace the valving (internals) with Koni h/w... the tubes are shortened, valving calibrated, completely custom "wet" replacement.. VERY pricey though...!!!

Did you get them DIRECT from Koni Australia.. or a Koni Dealer in Australia?

I had Koni reds on my 76 Alfa Romeo with Ward & Dean lowered (3') racing springs all around and rear sway bar... NICE!!! it ran like it was on rails.. without the harshness...!

That's good to know. For the X, it was just the fronts that had to be modified as you said. They were shipped to the one in Australia, and happened to be lucky to buy them recently off a person that had them for not that long on his X. They were still pricey, but worth it. The ride is gooood, and I'm the type that likes to cut apexes hard, now that I have hotchkis sways.

Right now its set at it's hardest, but on long trips I set it to medium. You got pics of your Alfa Romeo?

@ajkVQ I almost bought that rear bumper because I like the rear diffusers, but the sides didn't go well with my sideskirts.


Just put on my new front bumper today. Still gotta put in grille and black out frame to aero ducts.

I have an 04 Sedan. I've seen some people throw on coupe lowering springs like the tanabes df210 . What is the benefit of that? More lower?

If I do the z/g drop and I want to run 19's that should be achieved with no extra cambering or other suspension upgrades right?
