Default Koni Sport for Countach & early Diablo

All,
Taking up the thread from the old list, see copy under....Since it's been difficult getting enough people interested in a mutual order of 50 rear Konis I have decided to use the slightly used rear Konis from another car (Diablo) I have. Therefore it will eventually be up to another party to continue following this issue with regards to Koni Holland. Just bought 2 brand new front shocks 8241-1079 Sport. I just checked the old Countach shocks, Way AssAuto (still on the car) on a test machine and the right front one is absolutely gone...
By the way...Does anybody know if there is any difference between a rear spring on a 86 QV and a 92 Diablo? Height? Spring diameter? Spring rate? Any inputs welcomed!
Cheers,
Bjoern


From old list:
Koni Sport for 86 Countach
All,
Ok, that is 4 cars in after just 2 days... Anybody else interested? There are maybe some Lambo workshops on the forum interested as well??? Remember the yellow Konis are adjustable on rebound plus they are adjustable for different height of springs. As I have read on the other Lambolist they are far superior to the originals even when the OEM shocks are brand new. According to my contact who runs an independent workshop specializing in shock absorbers ONLY says that Koni are the "Rolls Royce" when talking shocks. And Koni have indeed a very good warranty on their products.
For your info the Koni part numbers are:
Front 8241-1079 Sport
Rear 8241-1121 Sport
I got a price today at USD 357 each. That equals EUR 297. The price does not include eventually tax/VAT. Same price front and rear. The front ones are available but as mentioned the rear ones are made at request.
Cheers,
Bjoern
