Koni shock Preorder
Recend information from Gordon Benson at Koni- NA. Gordon has said that the first SA Sport shocks will go to preorders when thay are first delivered. He says to place your preorder with a local Koni distibutor and you can be the first to get them.
Just wanted to pass on the good news. He also had part numbers for the single adjustable shocks.
Sport SA Front: 8241-1216 left and right
Rear: 8241-1217 rear
I placed my order today and wanted to pass on the information
It's getting closer

Yes, find alocal Koni distributor, give a credit card for a deposit. IT varied from $100 to $350 for a deposit to just a card to charge when the shocks are shipped. So contact a few different groups. I am using a local race shop that will install and help with setup for autocross.
good luck on your shopping

Estimate Only
There is only an estimate so far of $600.
Thats close enough for me. Also Koni says these can be rebuilt to duoble adjustables later which is attractive to me as my ability (I hope) improves and DA become more usefull.

Koni pretty much lost my intrest on the sports once I found out they will have less compression dampening than stock. Rebound only adjustment only interests me so much. But then again, no one offers a stiffer linear spring to run with them anyhow. Ground control coilovers are the lone exception. These struts ought to be great for those wanting to kill the bounce and not go with progressive lowering spirngs. But for my performance needs, coilovers remain the way to go. Yeah it would be nice to kill the bounce, but for $600, well thats $600 that needs to go towards more spring stiffness and greater dampener performance.

a couple of things ......
#1.) they will not be availalbe until spring of 2004 so, it's going to be atleast 4 months from now .... (this info is directly from a meeting with Koni execs last week)
#2.) Koni has not released the pricing yet .....
#3.) as soon as we have official pricing we will accept pre-orders but. $600.00 should be in the right ball park
