If you like a firm car, then Bilstein HD's aren't what you are going to want..... They are much better at controlling the suspension than the stock shocks, but aren't very firm in the front. This is why we do a lot of revalving... But, you have to be careful, a stiff car (which also includes springs, bars and bushings) doesn't necessarily handle well. I like my cars firm, but with good suspension movement to allow the bumps to be absorbed.... then you have really well damped shocks to stop the extra movement and give that locked down feeling.... Let's not forget that convertibles aren't quite as stiff as they could be, and a "harder ride" is very hard on the body structure as well and will tend to loosen it up.

It's hard to go wrong with the Koni's, as you can do pretty much whatever you like with them. DA's are beyond most folks understanding, so I'd recommend SA's (unless you really want DA's).... The adjustable shock allows you to tailor your ride, and response to your tastes. Also you can run a wide variety of springs with them as well. Bilstein HD's are valved for, and best suited to a stock spring. Stiffer springs want more damping (again, another reason we revalve a lot of them). Be aware that if you'd like revalves ($480/set vs. $735/set for Koni's) we need to have a plan including what springs you might want to run. The shocks are valved to each case. I don't have a "one size fits all" attitude.....

 

How much are the konis SA?

 

SAs are usually about half the price of DAs, I imagine they are around $700 right now, Sam's website would tell you though, www.stranoparts.com

If your not going to get fancy, you could just go with Bilsteins now and pull them off the car for revalving if and when you go with new springs. If you go with the Konis though you will be ready for nearly anything, thats why I got the DAs, I wanted to be able to change my springs if I wanted to down the line.
