My 030 suspension was quite harsh, and I replaced the shocks with the Koni Sports.

Suggestion

Being able to bias damping front to rear also helps adjust the car's handling towards under or oversteer.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hello. I will have to replace my rear shock absorbers on my 996 c2 -02 Iv looked around a bit and found a set of koni with adjustebel damping.. Have anyone had any experiens with this? KONI - Ref: 8241-1274Sport can be found here. https://www.urotuning.com/Koni-Yello...-1274sport.htm All the best Hampus

POST 2Original post

I recently attended a PCA tech session at Bilstein HQ. These guys are obsessed with Quality Control...very Porsche-like. I recommend you cross shop their products before making a purchase decision. relinuca

POST 3Original post

Bilstein and Koni are both excellent choices. For koni, the yellow "sport" is the only way to go- FSD is not that great from what I've heard. I prefer the koni since I like to be able to adjust the rebound damping. Towards the soft end of the adjustment range, the konis are more compliant than the stock m030 dampers were. But as you increase the damping, they become very firm and sporty. Being able to bias damping front to rear also helps adjust the car's handling towards under or oversteer. I've had them for probably 6-7 years and 40k miles and they are holding up great. They feel as good as new still.

I agree. My 030 suspension was quite harsh, and I replaced the shocks with the Koni Sports. I have them somewhere in the middle of the adjustment range (I think) and the ride is noticeably better but handling is still sporty.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi. Thanks for your posts. Am was planing to only change the back absorbers for now and take the fronts at a later time. Is this a stupid plan? // Hampus

POST 6Original post

I would change all at once unless the fronts had been done before. I just changed mine all around and went with Bilstein B-4’s all around. Too soon to comment but the initial impression on the drive home from the shop is a smoother more connected ride. I had 2 leaky rears so that’s why I did the change. Same car, ‘02 996NB. Mine is a Cabriolet. Good Luck!

POST 7Original post

I have a set of GT3 shocks if anyone is interested....I got them to put on my car but opted for Ohlin R&T GT3 instead.
