Koni Yellow+ Tanabe Gf210

whifkey Sti · 03-06-2008, 05:02 PM

Hey guys. My car is an 04 sti. I previously had gf210s on my stock struts. than i switched to a set of notorious $1K coilovers. i'm not happy with the ride and all the extra noise. i am now looking into doing koni yellows. my dilemma is do i put my gf210s on, stock springs or go and get a set of rce's or swifts. i was reading a thread that another person posted about how he liked the koni's w/ stock springs, but i think i might want to go with a stiffer spring.it was also said that the konis drop the car a little maybe 3/8's of an inch and i was wondering if they were combined with the gf210s would it be too low in regards to suspension geometry. lastly i think that i want to go with a set of camber plates in the front because i plan on tracking the car here and there and i want more aggressive camber in the front.what do you guys think? any incite would be greatly appreciated. thanks.

I have the exact setup and made the swich from cheap co as well.

gf210, konis, Wl camber plates, wagon housings. The ride is a perfect balance and handeling seems to be great. I was plowing a bit more than I expected at the last autocross but I have a ton of - camber in the back due to wagon struts. I need to dial some out with bolts.
