I don't know the part number. I just happened to see the price on tirerack by clicking the link in post #5 of this thread and posted it for the benefit of anyone looking to purchase them. I'm sure a vendor who carries them like Lou@ Amplified or Neal@tirerack can tell you.

I can tell you first hand, they will not confirm it, as they have NOT tested a sedan, nor an X coupe, only a 2WD coupe.
The part number is a crossover from the 370Z that I talked them into testing.
If you can find out a 370Z strut fits a sedan, then it will work.
Do these have both compression and rebound adjustments on both the front and rear units?
Also, can someone who has the Koni/Swift combo installed on a coupe measure exact ride height from the ground to the center of the fender opening please? Preferably someone that has had them installed at least a couple of weeks and has had alignment. Thanks.

Koni wont change the ride height as I measured the mounting bolt to spring seat when the OEM was off the car, and they match perfectly.
Ride height with the Eibachs did not change.
So it's basically the spring commanding ride height.
.
Thanks Pat. How many rebound settings front and rear? Can it be adjusted while the units are mounted without removing the wheels?
I know the struts won't change the ride height themselves, but I wanted to know the ride height (not the drop measurement) from someone who has the Swifts.

Strut shaft is hollow with a center adjuster.
Rears can be accessed with the car jacked up, an allen wrench into =======
