I'm going with KYB GR-2 gas shocks and RDX coil-overs. Will these shocks hold up to these springs? I'm really only going for looks and price here. Just don't want it to bounce around. OH yeah, it's a 97 gsr.

 

Haven't heard of those coilovers....

 

is RDX the manufacturer?

They're on eracingzone.com They RDX seems to be the manuf.

 

you should just get regular GC or Skunk2... i had skunk2... but went back to stock.. tired of freakin snaking the speed bumps with people honkin in the back tellin you to hurry up

 

Go with some brand new coilovers

 

dont go cheap on your suspension setup, trust me you'll regret it every dip/hill/bump you come across.

those coils look really really cheap and well they are(110 bucks), the reason its adjustable up to 4 inches is cause there's barely any spring on there, so its not going to absorb anything, hitch up for a ruff-*** ride. Plus no ones ever heard of them so there's no telling the quality of the springs.

if you want to do it right the first time
get gc's if you want comfort
get skunk2's if you want race-like stiffness

for the shocks
get something adjustable so you can match the spring rate or else you'll be bouncin all over the place
koni yellow's
AGX adjustables
Tokico Illuminas

you'll need to get camber correction also
Skunk 2 upper control arms
Ingalls kit

stick with the good stuff or you'll end up going back and replacing stuff you just got.

 

Unless you are rice, you will regret how gr-2s perform. They are similar to stock feel/performance.

 

u get what u pay for

 

Yes sir.
