02-03 Wagon Front struts w/koni inserts.. one is brand spankin new

The inserts will work for both WRX sedan and wagon, but they are currently in wagon housings...

They have 15-25k approx miles. They are awesome, and take the slop and bounce out of the front of a stock or lowered ride.

I returned the car to stock and already sold the rears. I ran them on the full soft setting on stock springs which was slightly stiffer than stock. They definitely take away that sketchy feeling during sprited driving. These are probably the best bang for the buck when tweaking your suspension.

The rebound on one of the inserts didn't match the other one, and Koni is going to warranty it, so one is used (but perfect), and one is brand-new. The new one should be here in a few days...anyone have dibs? Should be here by this weekend 8/6-8/7.

These cost me well over $350 ($168 each insert) plus the housings.... $200 or best offer for everything.

If someone wants just the housings alone, I'll sell them for $50. I accept paypal (verified account).

Tech advisor from Koni says that the rebound should be very stiff. It should be even stiffer as you dial up the ****...

Edit.. found out they are going to warranty the one with easy rebound... yeahhhhhhhhhhhh!

The AGXs were actually slightly stiffer on full-soft setting. Btw, just found out KONI has excellent c/s... they are going to warranty the bad unit free of charge (minus shipping though ) BUMP!
