Koni adjustable absorbers

[bazet]

My budget for M5 bodykits gone after cannot tahan with the bouncing rear suspension, the KW absorbers were dead. BTW, KONI built the damper for KW..so I hope it'll match with my spring rateSo on fine Saturday afternoon, I went to HOKOMOTO racing and buy a set of KONI Adjustable absorbers ( for rear E34 ) for RM1180 ( cash and carry ). Another RM80 for labour in my mechanic place. And I forgot to adjust the HARD setting ( I'm using normal setting )My car is using KW 60mm lowering spring, but I don't know the rate..but it's hard..that's I know...no comfort in my tank.Here's the picsKoni Absorber

Are you sure there is no typo error in the price ?
RM 1180 for Koni adjustable is really cheap.
They quoted me close to RM 2k for my E36.
Labour is cheap as well.

Read carefully : RM1,180 is for the rear only.........but I am sure this is good stuff. Maybe will try it with my Apex springs when my absorbers are due for replacement.

i'm sure its money well spent. i'd much prefer a comfortable ride rather than a nice looking kit!

Can I get some opinions of what's best for my front suspension replacement kah? I want to lower it a bit.. so that cows cannot cannot pass thru! All 4 are currently stock and it's about time for replacement ( shocks and springs ).

I want it lower but don't want to sacrifice too much comfort. I can bear with an increase 'hardness/comfort' of 40-50% more than my current stock.

any suggestions?

Eiback Spring and Racing Dynamics absorber will do the job..I think so. Or if you want custom treatment, try titan
