NB Suspension replacement (Koni Streets)

Postby dewy » Sun Jul 22, 2012 6:34 pm

Hi guys, 3 months later I finally have my shocks and springs from Shox.com however neither of the shocks (front or rear) seem to have a spring perch on them. I have checked again the part numbers on Koni's website 8050-1043 and 8050-1044 and they are the correct part numbers for the vehicles. Does anyone know if the perches are removable from the OE shocks in the car?

Looking to install it tomorrow but i am freaking I don't have everything I need.

Also do I need some kind of rubber boots to put over the shocks "thin bit"?

sorry about the shitty pic but this is all I have atm:

Hi, Dewy,
How did you end up with fitting the Koni? Does it fit the stock spring? Are you happy with them?
Do you know how it compare with the KYB GR2,
New owner of 1998 NB with orignal setup only for street driving, trying to to determine between the 2. Thanks.
