Was there mention if rear rebound was going to be externally adjustable or be the remove-compress-turn type?

Casual Racing have been using Konis all summer on their RX-8s. The shocks had separate adjustments for rebound and compression. The dials were located at the bottom of the shock and you have to use a peg to turn them.

I don't currently have a listing for the Koni's to fit an RX8 so i called and left a message for our Koni rep to give me a call with the information. As soon as i get an ETA i will get it posted up here.

I had those on my GTI and they were a pain in the butt. My JICs FLT-A2s have a cable that ataches to the top adjuster and runs into the trunk area. Hopefully Koni will do something similar.
