[ShApE]

has anyone used them? are any of these kits possible without goin too crazy with mods? http://www.koni-na.com/konikit.html
also are there any other adjustable coil over sets that can fit a vw besides maxx struts and adjust-a-struts?


if u didn't see on my last thread they won't have adjust-a-struts in for another 6 weeks so i cancelled the order

If I were to do it all over again, I wouldve went with the Kersher adjustable struts.

They use an Eibach Progressive Spring & Koni Inserts. It is a fully adjustable unit that allows exact ride height changes.

They are only a little more then the Maxx struts, which only allow 1/2" drops via a snap ring & cannot be adjusted while they are on the car.

Here is a pic

The main difference between the MaXX strut and the Kerscher is that the MaXX is adjustable in 1/2" slots and the Kerscher is fully adjustable. The strut is basically the same but as said the adjustability is the difference. The Kerschers are more adjustable but this would only be needed by a 'serious' racer that has to corner balance his car for the track. The MaXX are $300 less than Kerscher's strut plus the cost of overseas shipment, so it's all about cost effectiveness. The Kerscher has the advantage of the progessive spring and full adjustability that I would recommend for the track but on the street the MaXX do just fine.

This post is basically a repeat of this thread here:

Just curious if you found out if the Koni adjustable kits would work? I am considering using either the Maxx or one of the kits using Civic springs from Vdubcustoms or this idea. There is also another post indicating that adjustable struts can be fabricated rather easily. Please let me know what you decided.

Thanks,
