out of the three choices listed:
AGX by far is your best bet. The other two are really only OEM replacements, and really can't handle any significant height drop or spring rate increase over stock.

My buddy used to have Neuspeed Race on Tokico HP's... ride was total CRAP, especially after 6 months, those shocks were blown to high heaven. Car bounced all over the place, bottomed out all the time. Junk.
Then he wised up and got Koni Sport shocks to go with the Neuspeed springs.
Tokico HP shocks cannot handle race springs and WILL blow out within a matter of months, that is a fact.

he must have had a bad set, or lived in the rocky mountains and beat on them day after day

AGX is by fat the best out of those three. I have em and like them for their price. Don't get GR2s are they only intended as a stock replacement and won't be able to handle the added stress of lowering springs.

say what you will. The HP shocks are Tokico's lowest grade of shock absorber, and are comparable to the KYB GR-2 shock, both of them mainly OEM replacements, with marginal performance upgrades. They are not designed to handle the extremely high racing spring rates.

i would day go get some coilovers. i got some F2 love them but i been in my friends hatch with Tokico and they felt good but rough ride. he has eibach springs on dont know which one though
I got the same setup and they do not handle well under Drag or Track conditons. I'm switching over to the F2(Function) I say Save a little more and get what you really want.
