Actually the red Koni Special D shocks are adjustable-- just fully collapse 
the piston into the tube, engage the tabs into the slots, and rotate. There 
are four settings if you count the softest one, too.

Also, one Koni shock yet to be mentioned is the fairly rare Koni Gas-Filled. 
Though they are only listed for the Alfetta, they will also fit the GTV-6 and 
Milano, but unfortunately not any of the Giulia based cars. I've used three 
sets on GTV-6s and Milanos, and have found them to be superior to the Special 
D, Sport, and Blistein for street and light track use.

Good Luck,
Paul Mitchell
