The main comparison is between shocks that adjust both compression and rebound (tokico illuminas & gab superhp) and shocks that adjust only rebound (koni yellows).
I plan to buy one of these strut packages to match with my KGMM S21 SuperSports. They're 4.6kg/mm in the front and 4.0kg/mm in the rear -- linear rate. (So they're pretty damn stiff)
My main concern is that if I get a shock that adjusts compression and rebound at the same time, I might run into some trouble. Let's say that I start off with my shocks set at level 1 all the way around, and I want to increase the damping because my car is still pretty bouncy. Okay... so I turn the knob to level 2. But with the increased damping, there is also increased compression stiffness, and my car would still be bouncy.
With Koni Yellows, I would simply adjust damping until it feels right. I wouldn't really have a problem with the compression level increasing because that's at a constant rate.
Correct me if I'm wrong. I would really like to get a set of GAB Super HPs, but I'm not sure if they would give me that problem or not.
