i found some kyb gr2 on ebay and they are pretty cheap, im plannin to get them for my 96 accord, any comments or suggestions on the shocks?? thanks

 

they are good for everyday driving, street use, step up to the agx adjustable if your running autox or track stuff.

 

oohh, r they durable? i want to get them, but i saw that they dont make for ex model eh?

 

o by the way. how much u think a set will cost? 200 fair?

 

200 for 4 sounds pretty good, agx are about 325.

 

cool, what is the good spring combo for it? im thinking tein, what u think

 

i personally like h&r sports, tein are good also, never tried them.

 

yea h&r is nice too, i might just get h&r and the gr2

 

what kind of drop are you planning on running? gr2 are stock replacement shocks

 

get H&R sports....there good quality and wont sag on you...

 

1.5 drop , i used to dropped mine hella low and the suspension suz, so i raised it back and yea, i want something that stays forever, i dont want to adjust back and forth, takes too much time.

 

yeah h&r will be the one

 

yeaw i know it is stock replacement, but i just want something smooth for daily drive. i dont race and shiet

 

H&R sports are made to be used w/ stock or equivalent shocks so ride will be very nice..they make the best progressive spring on the market..

 

you really should upgrade shocks if your going with stiffer springs, gr2's may not last very long with stiffer springs.

 

u mean gr2 woulnt last long with the h&r spring?

 

correct, unless your a really mellow driver and the roads you drive on are in good shape.

 

damn, so what are some good shocks out there with reasonable prices

 

i personally like the KYB AGX, and i just picked up a pair brand new for $299 total, shipping included, off of ebay.

and i agree with getthing H&Rs, love them and will be installing them on my car this weekend.

EDIT:if you go with H&Rs, go through allsprings.com. great customer service, and competitive prices. ordered mine through them, hopefully be here tomorrow.

</TD></TR></TABLE> sorry to jack the thread but, will the sports work good with agx's? How would the race springs be on agx's

allsprings.com has some good prices

 

where can i get the cheapesst agx?

 

I am kinda on the same road as you.. I need to know what are cheap good shocks.. for about 1.7 drop.

My friend has gr2's with like 2 inch drop using intrax springs and he rides decently smooth

 

i dono what to choose now, some said the gr-2 wouldnt last long with aftermarket springs, and i dono where to get cheap agx's besides ebay! boo

 

are gr-2 better than stock shocks?
