Thumbs up SALE: SVX Koni/GC Suspensions, Parts and OEM Topmounts

Koni Sport Yellow Strut Insert Sets

These are the ones you've heard about. These require installation in your stock strut body and are compatible with the stock spring, the Ground Control coilover sets, the K&B dropsprings, and any other replacement spring set for the SVX. These consitiute an excellent upgrade to the stock handling even with the stock spring.

KONI SVX STRUT INSERT (SET OF FOUR): $649 + SHIPPING




SUBARU OEM STRUT TOP MOUNTS

These are brand new Subaru OEM strut top mounts, a quick cure for the tired, bulging rubber in your existing mounts. These are a must for those with higher mileage who want to go with performance suspension components.

FRONT SVX STRUT TOP MOUNTS: $140 PAIR + shipping

REAR SVX STRUT TOP MOUNTS: $160 PAIR + shipping





GROUND CONTROL COILOVER KITS

These are the other half of the Porter Koni/GC Suspension Kit. They include a full set of Eibach linear race springs and Ground Control custom height adjustment collars and top spring perches. These will absolutely transform the handling of your SVX. They are available with spring rates of 380lb/in front and 325lb/in rear. The kit is not harsh or bouncy, but can be considered "firm" over road imperfections like bridge seams and frost heave. Handling is dramatically improved over stock, and balance is very neutral, with a slight oversteer characteristic if driven aggressively on the throttle mid-corner. The greatest difference from a stock SVX is the dramatically improved response to weight transfer.

NOTE: The Ground Control kit CANNOT be used with the stock strut. It will DESTROY the valving in your stock strut very rapidly. These MUST be used with the Koni inserts.

UPDATE These kits do NOT require removal of the stock spring perches or welding of new ones. Instructions for wrapping the body of the strut to prevent rattling or noise will be included.

UPDATE NEW SPEC - 380# front, 325# rear. This should be a "best of both worlds" compromise. Custom springrates will be available on a special order basis for customers with special needs.

GROUND CONTROL COILOVER KIT, FINAL VERSION (380/325): $399 + shipping




PRE-BUILT KONI/GC KITS, READY TO BOLT IN

These kits are available on an individual basis and are "build-to-order". These kits are dependent on the availability of strut cores. Special arrangements will be made for each set built. Call for details, or post here for more information.

We will NOT be removing the stock spring perch or rewelding new ones. Thus the kits will be reversible to a stock spring while retaining the Konis for anyone who wants to revert to stock springrates later.




Please contact us via phone or email shown below. Ask for Jason or Lisa.

We accept all major credit cards and arrangements can be made for other payment types.

Thanks!

Jason Porter

Yes, the rears will be available separately once we fulfill the first batch of kit orders. I have six full sets ready to go now, as soon as several of those sell I will be able to break a few apart for you.

Just curious, why do you want just the rears? Are you already using Konis?

Yeah I got Konis for the front off ebay a year or so ago. If the price is right. I'm game for some rears.

UPDATE

See the original post.

New standard springrates are 380# front, 325# rear. A "best of both worlds" compromise.

Custom springrates are available on a special order basis for customers with specific requirements.
