from Gary.  



>>>Oh, so your Konis do NOT have ride height adjustability?  I know 

there were several different packages available.  The entry-level 

package was simply replacement shocks with stock springs.  Next up was a 

combined shock/spring package, and I thought this package had 

ride-height adjustability.  The 'best' package had full adjustability 

(rebound, preload, etc.).



Sounds like you have an interim package, with replacement shocks AND new 

springs, but no adjustability?  True?



For anybody who's interested, a photo of his car with the Konis on board 

appears on the second page of the article on his GT5 conversion in the 

last POCA PROFILES.  That would give an idea of what you could expect 

vis-a-vis ride height.
