What exactly is a strut insert?

A strut insert is a self-contained damping unit that fits inside your vehicle's original strut housing. You reuse the outer housing, and the insert provides the shock absorption and damping functions.

How do I adjust the rebound?

The rebound adjustment is external, meaning you can typically access a knob or dial on the top of the strut insert without removing it from the vehicle. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions for the specific adjustment procedure.

Does this come with a new strut housing?

No, this product is a KONI Sport strut insert only. It is designed to be installed into your vehicle's existing front strut housing. You will need to reuse your original housing.

Product Details

In this box, you get one KONI Sport (yellow) 8610 Series strut insert for the front of your 2002-2006 Acura RSX. This isn't a complete shock absorber assembly, but rather an insert designed to go inside your existing strut housing. It's built to give you more control over your car's handling characteristics.

What sets these apart is the external rebound adjustment. You can easily dial in how quickly the strut extends after being compressed, which is key for fine-tuning your suspension. This allows you to stiffen up the ride for spirited driving or loosen it a bit for more comfortable cruising. The twin-tube, non-gas charged design is a well-known KONI setup that offers consistent performance. The yellow paint is a classic look for these performance-oriented inserts.

Since this is an insert, you'll be working with your factory strut housing. Make sure you have the necessary tools and follow the manufacturer's instructions for installation. Getting the adjustment knob set correctly can make a notable difference in how your RSX feels on the road.
