Has anyone ever tried skunk2 springs w/ kyb gr-2 shocks? Tein or tanabe springs or tokico blue shocks? These are the only choices i could afford right now. Its for a 92 da that is a daily driver. Does anyone know which of these springs n shocks work best together? Thanks

 

I got Tein S Tech springs 2 inch and Tokico Blue struts .. Rides good for a daily driver ..

 

does ur car bounce or is it a smooth ride

 

I have ridden in a DA with the Skunk2 springs, rides nice. He's still on stock shocks too. I have Goldines with Tokico Blues(same drop) and its awesome. Good Luck

 

does anyone know whats the max drop that the gr-2 or blues can take since they're oem replacement shocks. Im going for a 2inch drop

 

Don't waste your money on the blues. Like you said, they're basically OEM replacements, but OEM shocks are not too good with lowering springs (bouncy ride and it'll blow the shocks much quicker).

 

I've been on the blues for over a year now and its not bouncy at all.

 

anyone else have info on these choices?

 

just get AGX's or the 5 way Tokico shocks

 

im on megan racing springs (1.75 drop, 280f, 230r spring rate)

and it rides nice on the kyb gr2

 

boooo tokico blues , mine are blown after a year. just get the teins. or get the gc/koni combo.

What are the spring rates on the springs you have?

 

i have sprint springs w/ kyb shocks

love it

 

I have no idea what the rates are. They're stiff but not too stiff and its not bouncy at all. They are just off the shelf rates I would assume. Its not too drastic of a drop either though.

 

can the gr2's take a 2inch drop?

 

yes, mine is dropped anout 2.5" in the front and 2" in the back, and i've had that set-up for about a year and a half w/ no issues or complaints.....get a camber kit though, that is a must.

A camber kit is not a must, an alignment is. Search and you'll see why you don't necessarily need a camber kit.
