for the camber adjustment i cut the inner tca bush of and put a rose joint on. even with the 944 stub axle i could get -4.5* of camber. now i have gone back to the 03 stubs i can get crazy camber.
i run golf mk1 inserts in cut down 944 cases and a coil over conversion. the golf inserts damper settings work well with 130lb springs i run. would like some adjustable inserts for when it comes out again along with some adjustable shocks on the rear.
going to go to a compresion strut for the castor adjustment for next year as well. also means i can get a adjustable front anti roll bar on there as well.

Last time I was in europe i picked up a set of each. Got a good price. Yes they are adjustable. although not top adjustable, must compress the rod and turn clockwise or counterclockwise. I was talking to a Koni rep and he told me that these koni sports part # are still hydraulic shocks not gas. They have a stiffer setup than the equivalent red's. He also stated that they are excellent for lowering since the start rate is equivalent at any height in the shock. Apparently they are rebuildable, also becareful not to bottom them out as this would probably damage the adjusting mechanism.

Sorry forgot to mention, that they are inserts in the front. Actually the same part # is used for the early 944's.
