Hi All
I am chasing up the part nos for adjustable shocks, front and rear, for a 23/28. I have been considering Koni but would be interested in any brand.

Okay, in my Corolla KE35 I have fitted those TT132 struts. I had to cut 1 coil to make them to factory corolla height. I have a 2TGEU installed too, so I have plenty of weight there to compress springs.
I suggest buying AE92 GT corolla shocks, these are some 50mm longer (exact dimensions on garagedori website in signature), and run spacers. That way you can run about 4" drop with captive springs. I want to go 2" lower then standard, which is about 3" lower with the corona struts.
I'm currently trying to get info on front shocks aswell, whether KYB GAS can handle 335lbs/ft (6KG) or not.... or whether I have to get revalved Konis or Bilsteins.

There was a set of these for sale recently, along with alot of other 23/28 suspension stuff. Get in touch with the guy that was selling it, he might be able to help you out.
