Anyone here with KYB SHOCKS?...

I was thinking of getting the KYB AGX, but they a bit out of my price range. So I can get the KYB Gas-a-just for the REARS and KYB GR2 for the FRONTS which is cheaper. Anyone know if these are GOOD shocks and if I can use them with my lowering springs? Right now I got lowering springs and my car bounces a lot...I'm hoping some performance shocks will take care of that problem!

I've got the AGX, but no experience with the others. My guess is they'd be lot better than what you have.

the agx's are $355us at www.k2rd.com which is pretty good. you need some decent shocks when ever you add springs.
you car looks pretty dam low though. any shock will probably wear out pretty quick.

check out:
http://www.japanesemotorsport.com.au/

in the used parts section they have a full set of KYB Coilovers with lowered springs for $395AU.

(they also have electric aero mirrors for FC3S, but i ain't paying $250AU for mirrors)

i have the KYB coilovers in the front of my car, and i am happy with them, i just wish they were height adjustable.

I'm running the non-adjustable kyb's and they're great. Good price and very good bang-for-your-buck. The adjustables would've been a cool addition but there really was no need for me.

Peace,
AJ ^_^
