Product Description

The **KONI 8641-1071SPORT Sport Front Shock** is a high-performance adjustable shock absorber engineered for the front suspension of the **1985-1989 Toyota MR2 AW11** (including 1.6 TC and GT/Supercharged variants). Part of KONI's Sport Series, this shock enhances handling, road holding, and cornering control over stock dampers while allowing drivers to fine-tune rebound damping via an externally accessible knob. This adjustability lets you tailor suspension response to your driving style without removing the unit from the car.

Designed as a direct front strut insert, the 8641-1071SPORT reuses the original front strut housing, making installation straightforward on compatible MR2 models. It works well with OEM springs or performance lowering springs (up to approximately 35 mm drop) to refine stance and handling balance. Sold individually, this shock lets you replace only the worn side or upgrade one corner at a time, delivering improved chassis feedback and stability for daily driving or spirited road use.
