Just want to bump this as Im super happy with my new stockish setup. H&R OE Sport springs and Koni Str.t struts. Stock ride height (H&R says it lowers it .75" front and rear) and a really comfortable ride. Koni states the Str.t's are valved for lowering springs (1.5-3") but I think they feel great.
Pros: really comfortable ride, feels great
I drove one for a long time. Easy and cheap to repair, and there was a huge (now dwindling) aftermarket. Yup, Koni adjuatable struts in a ~2500lb econo-box made those handle better than they had any right to.
Pros: easy and cheap to repair
Vehicle:
Dodge Neon
I am running Str.t with my Pro Kit. Been on them now for about 3 weeks and love the car! Handles very well and it is not harsh.
Pros: handles very well, not harsh
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
After several months I'm very happy with the ride. Smooth yet still a sporty ride (handles the curves) and the car actually lowered itself a bit more once everything settled. 100% recommend.
Pros: smooth, sporty ride
Part number: 8750-8050
Finished the install today. Everything is perfect. Eibach prokit + koni Str.t shocks = perfection for NJ roads under $600. 26" ftg all around and ride is a great middle ground between coilovers and stock suspension. Rides like a stock gti. Which is exactly what I wanted. No floatiness, but you don't lose your fillings going over bumps. Very controlled and balanced ride. This is a fantastic pairing and you will not be disappointed.
Pros: controlled and balanced ride
Cons: none
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Original owner of a 2005 Reflex Silver 5MT 4Motion GLS wagon. Currently with 108,xxx miles. It has all options available for that year plus now with several mods incl: Votex ground effects kit and W8 rear bumper (painted to match) H&R lowering springs and Koni shocks Revo ECM flash (pushing about 21 psi boost)
Pros: several mods, pushing 21 psi
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
The last GTI I drove was my 337 with coil overs. But I would never do anything that harsh again on a DD. The MS3 has been highly regarded for its handling since day one (although I can safely say the 1st gen shocks were poor - I just had Koni FSDs put in and it's night and day).
Pros: night and day
Cons: 1st gen shocks were poor
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Yeah, I just installed some with H&R sport springs. The ride is certainly an improvement over stock. It's only been a few days but I am liking these koni.
Pros: improvement over stock
I've dealt with Koni before and, while cumbersome, they backed their stuff up and sent me 2 new front struts after the seals popped.
Pros: backed their stuff up
Cons: seals popped, cumbersome
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Corrado
