The Koni 'kit' that was mentioned in the suspension forum can be had for around $600.My supplier in UK advises that if we have more than 5 kits the price will come down.The kit that was shown lowers an ST200 by 20mm from the ,already lower than std,ST200 ride height.This is an interest posting if anyone wants to kick off a group buy from us on the Koni Shock & Spring kit..TH

So they are Koni adjustables? Are you sure that it lowers the car 20mm? Because that is 7"! I would be interested in this, especially if the price will be lower. Also is there any modification that would be needed in order to make this suspension work on a Tour compared to a ST200?

I believe 20 cm would be about 7 inches. There are 25.4 mm in an inch if that helps. -FD

25mm = I inch(approx)....as I said thats 20mm lower than the stock ST200 which is already lower than the stoc V6 Mondeo(pre 2001 model)..If we can get five we can go at it ,I'll get the 'batch' prices for 5-10- etc...The springs are from Koni as well but I suspect that they are made by Eibach or another European spring mfg for Koni...
