Hey guys I figure I do this review since when I wanted to get this kit I could find no review on this site, so I got the kit of Friday and installed it on Saturday, ride is better than what I had stock and the feel of the car improved 110% steering feels heavier, high speed turns are much safer, and the look of the car improved night and day my front setting is at quarter from soft and the rear is half way stiff, here is some pictures
Looks great! Thanks for sharing. I was considering getting these but decided to go with the KONI FSD and retain the OEM springs from the OEM Sports (as i dont want the car any lower). I will have to find sometime to install mine. Any good tips for diy?
That's a good amount of drop there for that Koni kit; looks good! After a while, come back and report on your "long-term" findings with the shocks and the adjustability and ride quality.
koni makes great durable shocks. my koni sports shocks on my integra have 120k on them. No leaks and rides solid. I would get these shocks if i were lowering my car. The front looks a little too low though

idk if you looked but in all the pix i took the car is on a steep where i went in reverse, thats why it shows that way
Thank you Shervin350! you read my mind. I also did not find any reviews or photos on this kit installed. I have been hesitating buying this kit even though I know that Koni and H&R are very reputable companies. Your Car is sitting just right. Do you mind letting me know who did you buy your kit from?

Yes of course I got these from RCA racing consulting agency, s/o to them for really hooking it up I got the kit for 790 where everywhere else was 1000 more
Is there any loose play in spring for rear absorber after tightening the top mount? I paired koni yellow with my F sport spring and apparently there is about 1/8" gap even after tightening top mount for the rear while front fits nicely.
Bumping this thread. Considering this kit. How do you like them for daily driving?
Reviving this and further pushing for these struts I love them but damn its pricey especially since the CAD dollar is low as crap. Ride improved 100% I am coupled with H&Rs.
Hey Gville350, if you are still monitoring this thread ? Hey, what brand did you recently move to when you replaced the shocks on your IS350 ? I saw that you were going to replace some on another thread.
Always respected your advice, hope you see this message. I am thinking about this kit, the Original poster recommended and used. It looks like good quality and not radical.
But, I hate to lower the car and dislike how it rides afterwards. Figure safe is just get four Koni shocks. Koni is better than KYB's offering for IS350's. The KYB's I have on the rear are shot at 75k miles. They lasted about 35k , can't complain. Fronts are done, they are originals. I can tell in the turns, not staying level anymore.
I can probably change them, you have to compress the springs, to change the shocks anyhow, so changing out a spring is easy to do.
let me know
best regards
