ke20 dampers - shock absorbers

[styler]

i have looked at all the types of dampers and it seems gas monotube are very good, better than twintube oil or twintube gas.

so my question is what monotube gas inserts will fit the ke25 / ke20?

also looking at rear dampers to match.

i tried to find dampers from :

lower end - gabriel, pedders, monroe, ac delco...

higher end - bilstein, KYB, koni...

and the only ones that are listed under ke20 / ke25 corolla are the cheaper twintube gas ones.

anybody know of a cross matching set from another car that will fit?

or specs on the original ke20 / ke25 ones so i can try match some up? might have to measure mine up! did a search and so far came up with 38mm internal.

Send a PM to dave386 and ask what he has in his track KE25 it must be pretty good because he does some quick times on the track in it He has a few threads and posts in the Track Talk section under Track Times.

i have/had some Tokico non-gas and they looked nice

you can still get koni reds? from a place in the US (classic something or other online)
if you are just using for the road, you will probably never notice the difference anyway...

however, you can always get something custom built.

K-Mac made them for KE10's, so 20's for sure.. but i would probably not buy them again
