Would these be a straight forward easy swap? I have looked at old threads regarding Konis and get confused as to whether there is more involved with installing these, than using your original hats. Would I not have to do this using other manufacturers (i.e. - bilstein)? I'm emailing shox.com to verify that they have different part numbers for the early model cars, as mine's a 90 model C2.

Any help/advice would be appreciated. I'm looking at these for a street driven car that needs a better stance.

TIA,
Jason

Jason, the front Koni's are inserts and require you to cut the original housings and drill a hole in the bottom for the mounting screw. It really is pretty simple.
I have a set in the classifieds already mounted for $260 for the pair (shameless plug).

What you will find as I did, is that Koni no longer makes the rears for the early 964's. They only make for late 91 to 94.

I wanted a matched set so I went with the Bilsteins.

Thanks, Colin. I would also prefer a matched set. Sounds like a deal for people with later model cars.
