Koni's Anyone?

Does anyone have Koni's on their Rex yet? If so how do you like them and is there a warranty at all? Price etc. and would you recommend them to people over say KYB's? Thanks-

See I've heard that KYB's are decent but I see all these Suby guys running them on the GC8's. Now my friend has a 00' GTI with koni's and they are AWESOME...he also has a 91' AWD Talon with KYB's and they are not that great when compared to the Koni's but they are on a diff car too, which doesn't say too much aside from having over 50k miles on the Koni's and they are still sweet.

So thanks for the input! I'll be going for some Koni's soon it looks like!

Update:

I also have a freind with an STI swap into a GC8 wagon and it rides OK...Not impressed too much though. He has KYB's with aftermarket sport springs...not sure what ones though.

I've found a few places that sell them but cheapest so far is like $580/ all 4.

Anyone have a hookup?

OK...sorry bout that. My "hookup" fell through as the WRX seems to be more than the usual avg. price (damn us) BUT here's a link to my post on another forum that shows where all the price comparisons I've researched are:

Some price comparison's there

REALLY? My quote was from a few months ago!? Maybe the price has come down a bit since then!? Sweet.

Like on my post in Apexfactor:
OK...best deals I found yet: (shipping is about $15-20)

http://www.ltbmotorsport.com/koni.html
Mine is $614 for all 4?! + shipping

http://www.autocarparts.com/search/K...ource=overture
$582 all 4 + shipping

http://www.tirerack.com/suspension/koni.htm
$634.56 shipped

www.shox.com
$154/each so $616 shipped



Thank god they've come down in price! Thanks for the info!
