Hey Z06 guys!
Dobyns, Flaherty, Plante, etc...
2812's are the good stuff. MSRP is about $950 a shock.
Its a nitogen filled monotube race shock that works similar to Penske's and Moton's but does not require a remote reservoir. I just bought them for the Civie, so I've recently done a bit of research on them. Remote reservoir's are sexy, but have drawbacks. You'll rarely find a set of 2812's this cheap. The bump valving is digressive and handles sometimes bumpy lots like Fontana and San Diego much better than a Koni Single can.

Hmmm.
That would be my 4th brand of shock on the Z & then I'd have to hear it from JI. JUST GET UP ON THE WHEEL & DRIVE THE CAR - BOB!

Well you need a 4th set to go with which ever combination of used/new/big/small/kumho/hoosier/street tires you have on that day.

But with these shocks you would have one part taken care of the right way.

Are these inverted like the 3013 or regular?
How/where do they adjust?
Adjust on/off the car?
Pull wheel?
Rebuild youself or send to Koni?
I googled but all I can find is little pics that don't show detail.

Not inverted.
Both bump and rebound adjust on top.
Send to Pro Parts or Koni
Here are mine for an EF civie
