Re: *2023* GROUP BUY: Eibach ProKit (3805.140) for 87-94 Berettas
Konis are the way to go with these imo. Check the Koni thread in the suspension sub forum, I posted my YouTube videos showing how I did it.

Re: Koni Yellow PN's Bilstein #'s
Here's how I made the fox body rear konis work:

And here's installing the springs and shocks on the rear:

Re: Koni Yellow PN's Bilstein #'s
Ok I finally got around to doing this, it's for a Calais but should be similar enough. Strut housing mods: https://youtu.be/RG6KB0Hdg9Q Strut mounts: https://youtu.be/mNJ3YWT2uqI Completing the strut/spring assembly: https://youtu.be/jE_kyFdMKqM In a few weeks I hope to have the rear Koni videos edi...

Re: Koni Yellow PN's Bilstein #'s
There is metal not too far behind that rubber though. I was hoping I could just use a woodworking forstener bit to cut it down to an acceptable level but of course when I started digging at it with a chisel there was metal about a quarter inch down. That's why I had to go at it with a die grinder. I...

Re: Koni Yellow PN's Bilstein #'s
It's possible that the 92 and later strut mount would work, yours looks like the one from my 91 N body. I had to do something so I just wanted to get some cheap stock struts just to get me through the winter. Of course none are available for 91 and earlier cars so I tried a set for a 92 N body. They...

Re: Koni Yellow PN's Bilstein #'s
Sorry, I didn't even notice that the WRX's part number is 8610 1351sp, I probably shouldn't refer to the universal race ones I linked as "8610s". I'm sure the WRX insert is just like the normal ones and bolts in at the bottom. I was just talking about the ones alxsmt brought up that people...

Re: Koni Yellow PN's Bilstein #'s
That's what I can't find info on- the universal 8610s don't have a bolt hole at the bottom and the 8611 double adjustable ones have a second adjustment at the bottom, so I just don't get how they actually install in the strut housing since they don't bolt in like the normal strut inserts. From what ...

Re: Koni Yellow PN's Bilstein #'s
Is the adjustment capable of accounting for the difference between 400/650 for the L/N vs 1100/1600 for the WRX though? And I wonder what the numbers for the fox body rears are (I'm assuming that since one of the previous posts discovered that that brand of rear shock fit with a bigger bolt on the b...

Re: Koni Yellow PN's Bilstein #'s
That is the question! I will solve it by diving right in... I need to fix 4 cars suspension... so I’ll first be buying some nos mitsu and putting them to the old-style top bearings. If mitsu stock remains, (shockwarehouse) I’ll continue before going wrx... will post updates before years end hopeful...

Re: Koni Yellow PN's Bilstein #'s
Anyone know any options for fronts in 2021? These mitsu konis are getting hard to find now. Being rebuildable I'm hoping that if I can just get one pair I'll be set. I'm building a calais (sorry this forum is the closest thing for the N body of that year since quad4forums went under) and so far ever...
