Thanks
The Tokico HP struts and shocks I purchased were single adjustable and worked great for my track duty I would purchase them again.

Decided against Koni with OE Sport Springs as I PM'd a member who did just that and said even on the softest setting they're harsher than OE. Definitely don't want it any harsher than OE. Finalizing a deal for OE 20k mile full Sport strut/shock and spring set. I also don't want it lower than OE.

I know his is an old post but I want to clarify for others that the Koni are softer than stock on the softest setting, on the firmest setting they are very very firm. I had 30k miles on my sport suspension when I changed just the shocks and the front was a little floaty on full soft and the back was soft but ok. Ride and handling are both better on the Koni if you get them adjusted correctly. I currently have mine set 50% front and 20% from full soft rear but run then firmer on track.

This is a good point.

I have my fronts set to slightly firmer than the middle setting and the rears set right in the middle. This seems to be a good combination.

Gotcha, still not down with only being able to adjust rebound and/or rebound and compression together.
