Way to be a helpful, polite member of the 8th. No wonder so many people are getting fed up around here. I don't care how much freaking AutoX experience you've got, that dosen't give you the right to be a freaking asshole for no reason whatsoever. Now if I had screwed your fiance, I could understand that..."You ignorant fool".

I hate to buy into a stereotype, but your post totally encapsulates the entire Jersey "Guido" persona to a T. What an ass clown you must be in person. Is this what it looks like at one of your track days?

I'm actually the guy to the far right of the picture, sort of in the northeast portion of the picture behind my cousin Castanallouch, the guy with blue shirt. Nice find on your first try!

But seriously, my apologies.

I copied and pasted this from their website, you ignorant fool. A set of OTS Koni Sports usually run about $700-$800 anyway, quite far from your 3x more expensive assumption.

Have a nice day.

It really depends on the make/model of car... konis can go from $150-200 each... nice shocks, but there are other options out there too.

So thats a set of 4 for $600-800. $800 is pretty close to $851. The new stuff for the newest cars always cost more. I've seen Koni sports for a DC2 on sale for $450 for the set. But they are super cheap because the 88-00 civics and 90-01 tegs all use the same suspension.

Our cars have been out for over 2 yrs now and there are still things we dont have available yet. I say f*ck koni look for somethin elsewhere. If they cared or really intended to have something for us i believe it would have been out already. Its a shame but thats how its looking to be. Its not like we got some crazy complex suspention system.

lmao are those guido pix real? Is that make-up they are wearing? If i ever met one of those guys i wouldnt be able to stop laughing

Both... And, after the difficulty they had in attempting to acquire the stampings, I'd say to prevent matters from becoming a pain in the ass.
