So, I'm building another cd5. I plan to drop this one on h&r sport springs (1.75&1.5). I bought a pair of kyb agx's for the front and I have a pair of kyb gr-2's for the rear that never got installed on my last accord. I'm confident that the gr-2's are just fine for the drop in the rear. can anyone see any reason why I shouldn't mix the two?

Here's a pic of my last accord for you all (we all love pics right?). It was sitting on eibach sportlines with gr-2s in the front(never had any issues with them) and stocks in the rear.

 

please don't

 

GR2s are designed to be replacements for the factory struts, they aren't made to handle a car with a drop. You need AGXs (or some other performance strut made to work on a lowered car) all around if you are gonna drop. Putting the GR2s on with a drop (even if you thought it worked before) would be very foolish.

 

i would rather have the agxs in the back, thats what i ussually run.

 

Gr2s are the same the 3rd setting on the AGX...

do you have a shock dyno to back up that claim?

 

I don't mean to thread jack but Iam also in the same dilemma. I have KYB AGX all around on EIBACH PROs. But my car bounces excessively on the highway and uneven roads. So I was thinking of replacing the front AGX with KONI YELLOWS and keep the AGX in the rear. IS this ok ?

 

its ok, but not ideal. my friend has koni yellows in front and tokico blues in the rear with ireland engineering springs all around on his bmw e30 and its ok.
