Hey guys I read around took in a lot of information and just want more clarification on it. I got a 94 gsr and I'm trying to lower it with the budget I'm currently on. Does anyone run with kyb gr2 shocks and tein s tech springs? If anyone does how do you like it and is the 2.5 drop in the front to low. Pictures would be great if you have any. I tried searching for pics and didn't really find what I was looking for, or maybe I'm just blind. Any info would help. Thanks in advance!

 

im running GR-2's and H&R oe sport springs with a .75" drop on the front and back, i cant imagine going any lower then this given the amount of travel you loose in the strut the ride must be unbearable. I like the way it rides now, a little smoother and stiffer at the same time, has a nice performance feel to it without being harsh.

 

GR-2 is a stock replacement shock. It will not handle any significant lowering at all for very long.

Honestly I don't understand why people insist on significantly lowering cars with trash KYB GR-2 and Tokico HP shocks. Koni STR.T's might be okay with those springs.

 

.75" isnt significant lowering

 

In my experience GR2's WILL BLOW. If you are on budget save up more money get a better setup.

 

Wasn't referring to you, was referring to OP who wants to lower 2.25" on GR-2 shocks.

I agree, GR-2 shocks are fine with OE Sports... but so should any other OE replacement shock such as those from Monroe, etc.

 

well...monroe tends to be junk as an OE replacement too :rofl:
