The Konis should have no durability concerns with the Gen2's rates,
assuming you set the dampers properly.  The tangent has seemed to morph
towards those using seriously high-rate springs.  The AGXen wouldn't pose
any concern, either, but (as you well know) won't offer the level of
control that even the SA Konis will.

I'm about 85% certain that I saw SHigSpeed and Motivational each
advertising the ability to make any SE-R housing externally adjustable,
though I don't recall if you can adjust jounce *and* rebound on the DA
fronts (there isn't even a DA rear listed from Koni IIRC).

I wouldn't waste my money; AGXen are perfectly good dampers, especially
considering the dozens if not hundreds of people using them from street to
autocross to road racing, even in fairly modified cars.  I just watched an
SP NX1600 RIP UP an autocross just this passed Sunday riding on a GC/AGX
suspension...he was only a few tenths behind an SP CRX on Konis and the
same rubber.
