Koni (Headquarters Netherlands) told me shocks will come approximately late 2009, maybe delayed until early 2010.

Of course you can put me on the list although i am German. But i am willing to buy these, had them on my old Starlet too.

If we petition, does that mean we are obligated to purchase a set if Koni decides to make a kit?

I would buy them if the come available but of course not in the US, since Koni is an european company and their products can be ordered everywhere here in Germany.

i would hope they'd be full bodied. guess we'll see! i don't forsee many YW members being willing to swap cartridges out, but hey, i could be wrong!

It would only be cartridges for the front.. not horrible.

Any of you guys that want really good high performance adjustable shocks already have the Tokico HTS. I have done 3 track days now on them and they are AWESOME! I think you can get a set for $600 or so, or not actually. MSRP is over $900.

Not available over here and the shipping costs are very high. Koni will be available here in Europe if they make some for our car.

Why not petition Ground Control to produce a coilover to run with the Koni yellows?

That's less than my cost. MSRP is $936 for a set.

yeah, i was told that would be the approximate street price when the became available before an MSRP was established.
