Anyone tried the new Koni FSD struts?

And that all makes sense. Since this test is at the high frequency 13ft/sec, this is where the valve on the FSD is wide open and providing the least resistance. This is what would be happening over say a speed bump. This allows the spring to compress while transferring the least amount of upward force/lift to the chassis. The info that is missing is what is the force at the low frequency setting? I think I read somewhere the FSD is actually stiffer than the Sport (full soft) in the low frequency travel.

Hi guys - new member.
I have just bought a bargain 123k mile 2002 2.7, looked after but obviously a little past its best. I am researching options for dampers.

I've had a quote for M030 at about £1100, I can get Koni sport or Koni FSD for about £550.

Currently I am not fussed about lowering the car - so replacing the shocks only could work. I would probably want to add in some Anti roll bars though.

Has anyone run the Koni sports (or FSD's) on standard springs, particularly older ones? Reccomended or not?

My thinking is a decent ride height and soft-ish springs, but with stiffer ARB's will give a good balance for driving on the tight bumpy roads we have here in the UK but not too roly-poly on the odd trackday.

I'm gonna leave your handle alone...... As far as the Koni FSD's go they are designed specifically to use the stock springs on your car. They do have a set that comes with springs if desired.
