Ok, I know these aren't the best when it comes to shocks but it's all I really have to work with right now.

I'm planning on putting on Tein H-tech springs with one of those two shocks.

I've heard a lot of bad things about the Tokico blues though, but some good. And I hear the KYB GR-2 shocks are pretty much like stock shocks, which I dont mind since mine are almost gonna blow.

I would just like any input on either of these shocks from personal experience please. Thanks.

 

i had neuspeed racing and kyb gr2 and the combo was amazing not sure about the blues though. But the Gr2's are great.

 

did it feel like stock?

 

I had some Tokico blues a while back they started to leak oil very quickly. The car was lowered about 1.5", but that shouldn't have been enough to blow new shocks.

I have heard good things about GR-2s I know people like to use them on GM W-body cars if that matters at all...

 

I have had KYB's AGX shocks on stock springs in my car for two years and they still perform like new. Would recommend them to anyone. The difference between the 4 different damping settings is quite impressive. And it only takes a minute to adjust all four.

 

I havent really heard good things about the gr-2, unless all you really want is a straight up oem replacement, but I have the tokico blues with eibach pro-kit springs, and its almost blown after 6 months.

 

Tokico Blues with 5Zigen R-Rated Springs here...1.7" drop. Still rides like it did the day I installed them(a lil over a year ago). I would recommend it.

 

I have Tokico blues with eibach sportlines and I hate 'em. Way too bouncy. Going with ground controls and Konis asap. I'm self employed so tax time has put everything on hold till I find out how much The G-man wants. Plus my 500 other projects have drained me. Note too self: Do one thing at a time.

 

had gr2s and eibach spings on a ef hatch and it rode like crap...very bouncy on 2-3in drop

 

my gr2's and my neuspeeds felt like it was rock hard. my friends teins and skunk2 springs are bouncy as those inflatable jumping tents. My setup had me thinking i had all my shocks blown right after i installed them new. Very stiff. But that also has a large part to do with the race springs.
