Hi all
Santa has brought me a pair of Konis for the front of my 356 (got Boges at the mo, their bit soft).
The Konis are adjustable off the car but need setting before fitting- can anyone suggest a good starting point please??
Will go for a set of rears soon as well.
Cheers
Steve

It depends on what you want the car to feel like.....
Coupes =
Fronts = should be on the softest setting
Rears = no more than one full turn and a maybe only half a turn for road work.
Cabriolets, speedsters and roadsters set them all at soft.
Make sure you have good anti roll bar rubbers
Go to a 17mm front anti roll bar for good fast road cars
Check that your rear torsion bar rubbers are in good condition and you can go to 80shore hardness as an option.

Thanks Paul and Mike
I've got all new bushings front and rear - but stock 15mm anti roll bar - might upgrade this after fitting the shocks - is the 17mm bar the next step?
Do you stock the bigger bar and bushings?
All the best

Thank you for pm David (along the same lines as above ta)

Cheers Paul
Not a sales pitch - I asked you!!
Appreciate your help -
Seats are figure hugging speedster (copies but i love em)-
Tyres 165 x 15 Firestone F-560 (been happy with them also)
Let me get the visa bill out of the way first!
All the best for 2010
I still owe you a beer - maybe catch up at CLM.
