Would the Koni yellow actually be able to take the abuse from rallying?
As much as I'm not the biggest fans of Subarus would love to get ahold of a GC8 Impreza and make that a project rally car. Would imagine there's more rally aftermarket support for that.
Team Illuminata has a cool Audi Quattro coupe build I enjoy checking out

Only rally suspension I see for our cars is the Yellowspeed and have not gotten the best feedback from them. I have a lot of empathy for you as its like me trying to get, not watered down good French restaurant in Los Angeles.
The Koni yellow
might be able to handle the way I would use them, if I were
really careful where I put the wheels on the stage roads.
But I trust the Bilstein B6es much more for this given their stronger (albeit still not Bilstein 'motorsport' rally damper strong/diameter grade) piston shafts than the Konis.
NO WAY would I trust them to actually COMPETE against the clock on these bombed-out gravel stage roads/forestry roads.
Scoobies actually have too many (seems like HUNDREDS!) full-on rally suspension choices/options.
Everything from decent $1200.00 setups to top of the line, $12K+ Ohlins systems and the like.
We have the Yellowspeeds, not sure about their cost (IF you trust them!), the Panda modded for rallying Silvers Neomax for ~$1600.00 (again,
if you trust Panda to actually deliver them after paying for them ahead of time), the Flatout Suspension which seems to be a darling of the SCCA Rallycross crowd for ~$3K, same cost as the not rebound or compression adjustable, M-Sport R1 Bilstein kit (which do use the big/strong 'motorsport' pistons/shafts).
Then there is the
pinnacle for our app, the M-Sport Poland, R2 Reiger 3 way damping adjustable, remote reservoir, gravel and tarmac spec available, coil over setup.
Yeah, about $8.5K to almost $10K, depending on options/spares.
(
Maybe down to $4.5K for a decent rebuilt used set.)
THAT IS IT!
This is perplexing, given how popular these cars are for rallying worldwide, as well as here, and that yes, albeit fact that the Scoobies are
still the #1 weapon of choice for US
domestic rallying, they
are not on the world stage
at all anymore (WRC classes, Euro and rest of world national rallies), whereas OUR rides ARE.
