Cool MK2 42mm inserts wanted

Hi,

So i need new front strut inserts for mk 2 struts.

Ive done a bit of searching and know S1 RX7 shocks fit, and monroe ones rnt worth it, i also read that skyline inserts may fit...but i couldn't find what model?? 31?? and possibly a porsche one of sorts fits
car isn't going to be a full rack car, maybe a hillclimb once in a blue moon but mainly a road car.

Is there anything else anyone know of worth trying/exploring??
also if anyone has anything they want to sell (inserts and lowered springs) id be interested.

Cheers

Koni's & Bilstiens both have off the shelf items for NK 2 struts

there are two sizes of struts in the MK 2 - the 2lt units are the larger in diameter

Why mess around with inserts from other models. You can order new ones from Yesterford.
You can't get anything performance in that diameter. You'd need to swap to 2lt or Capri struts.
