Default Quick question

Are the KYB AGX Sports adjustable? I'm looking at setting them up with the Eibach sportline springs which can be use to drop 1.7"-2.3" I'm putting this on my 01' gsr. I've read mostly nothing but good things from these struts and springs, but anybody else running this setup? If so pls give me some feedback on what you think about it.

alot of people get confused and think that the perch is adjustable.

the adjustment is only for the dampening.

also it is not reccomended that you drop you car passed 2 inches with the kyb agx since they do not cover it under warranty passed that drop.

ive had them and they were a bit too stiff for me.

im more of a comfort guy now and i love my tokiko blues.

Eh, I've heard soo much crap about teh Tokico Blues. THeyre considered just an OEM repalacement shock so Id stay away from em if I were you.

I was dropped on the KYB AGXs and I was absolutely happy with them. They are NOT stiff at all. Like some other guys aid I was on the stiffest setting and I drove her every day.

A quality shock...good for autoxing as well. Id reccomend it any day!

yeah, what's good about the AGXs is that you can adjust them... mine are fine on 4, but if I head into the city where the roads aren't so good I might turn them down a lil, or on a long road trip or something, but I'm lazy and don't care that much so 4 is fine for me.

on 1 they are plenty soft, i'd say get them and find how you like it.

OMNIPOWER?? WTF? I"ve never heard of that company. Maybe I havent kept up with my manufactuers but as far as I know Eibach is one of the best spring-manufactuers in the business. Theres nothing wrong with coil-over sleeves. The height-adjustability may come in hadny sometimes. And there are high-quality coil-over sleeves out there. Check out the ground control coil-over sleeves (the actualy spring is manufacturered by Eibach)

Good luck!!
