Default Koni Double Adjustable aluminum bodied shocks

These are custom Koni bump and rebound adjustable shocks. I have the shock dyno chart if you would like it. The rear shocks are adjustable from the bottom, and the fronts are adjustable from the top. Plenty of range for any track. Will sell with or without springs.

Front springs are 900, rear are 700.

Great condition.

Asking $2000 without springs. $2250 with springs.

PM me if interested.

Bump for legit shocks. I'd be all over these if I wasn't selling the car.

Are top mounts included for the front? Upper/lower mounts for the rear springs?

There are about 500 to 750 miles on each set of shocks. Not much at all. If you need the revalved, any reliable race shop can do it, but you're not going to need them revalved for a while. And I can supply the shock dyno chart with each set so they can be brought back to the exact setup if they ever did start to fade.

Mounts are not included, as they are direct replacement for the OEM shocks.

Thanks guys. You're right. The quality on these shocks is unmatched. Made in the USA and are super reliable.

Anyone who gets these will be really happy with them.

The most important question you didn't address is whether or not these shocks can let you slam your ride lower than Ksports or BC.

Oh they can't?

These must be junk then...








Hope the sarcasm wasn't lost on ya. If I had that kind of cash right now I would be all over these especially since you're local. What kind of racing do you do?

Oh, I got the sarcasm! ;-)

If your interest is in slamming the car, these are not the shocks for you.

However, if you want the car to handle like it's on rails, then yes, these are the best things this side of $5,000 triple adjustable Motons.

I'm open to resonable offers. I'd like to get them out of the garage.

Sadly, double motons cost $5,000....triples are closer to 7000-7500.

I know someone who may be interested. He would only need the 700 pound springs. Also how hard is it to convert these to true coilover?

You can put 700 lbs springs on and these shocks will be fine. They had adjustable spring perches and the compression and rebound are adjustable, so they can be dialed in to what ever spring rate you want to try.

Also, the front is essentially a 'coil over.' The rear of the 350Z doesn't lend itself to having a coilover as the top of the rear shock mount area wasn't designed to hold the weight of the car; nor the lower control arm for that matter. (Not passing judgement on any system that would use this, just that Nissan designed the frame to be the load bearing part of the rear suspension). Most Pro developed 350Zs I've seen all used the stock spring perches...

Ian, put the pool on the VISA! Your 350Z REALLY REALLY needs these!! Besides, they're a fraction of the cost of a pool and you'll use the shocks everyday! ;-)
