Default Koni Shocks

I'm debating changing at least the front shocks. Koni sport shocks 8741-1543Sport / 8241-1274Sport were the ones I was looking at. I really prefer the top side adjusting variety. Sport bikes do spoil a guy with that feature. I did find a Koni pdf showing the yellow sport shocks that look like they actually do have an adjuster on top. I'd like to know if they actually do. I'd be asking for too much to get preload, rebound and such but eh.

Anyway after a last night read of a last year shock thread I'm wondering if Koni has changed their sport shock recently. I'd like to know what ever input you guys have.

I had a set on another car and they had great adjustability for street. I would suggest that you do both front and rear.

JMLA are the Koni fronts adjustable on top in the trunk?

I had them installed on a Prelude (all four had top adjustment), so I don't know what the configuration would be on a 996.

Any other input regarding these Koni's? I like the idea of top adjustability.

What about which springs to match them up to? Eibach, H&R, RoW M030?
