I'm considering these two to replace my stock shocks. Which would you recommend buying? The KYB AGX is what I wanted in the beginning, but I want the Tokico Illumina because you can adjust from the top of the shock instead of it being on the side like the AGX's. What are other advantages of the Illuimna's over the AGX's? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

what springs are on the car now and what is the car used for, daily driven or will it see some auto-x.

I'd go with KYB AGX, I have Illuminas and they were great, but not needed for daily driven, i'd either go cheaper for KYB AGX or go all out and get $460 Koni Yellows.

 

Well, I have some Drop Zone coilovers I will be using with it and it will be daily driven but with some occasional auto-x.

 

drop zone isn't exactly a premium suspension with quality rates that are going to help your auto-x experience, so cheap coilovers, i'd go cheap shocks, KYB AGX.

Unless you plan to upgrade those coilovers to GC later, then Illumina or if possible, the $460 Koni Yellows.

 

I know that, It's all I can afford right now. KYB AGX it is then. Thanks alot for your help.

 

who sell the konis' at $460???

 

look in the marketplace, there are two vendors selling Koni Yellows for $460 shipped. One is nolimitmotorsport and thats who i just got a set from not to long ago, too bad i never installed them, i'm waiting on BuddyClub Racing Specs
