I would not recommend Tokico.
I have just seen too many blow.
They just don't last.
As for the KYB AGX, those are what I'm looking at too.
If anyone knows how to get them for dirt cheap, drop me a line.
I would also recommend those for your eibach set up.

Yea I like the Koni Yellows but I think they would be a little overkill since I just want them for daily driving. If any one knows a good place for a set of kyb's let me know.

in my experience, yellows are more tolerant than AGXs on lower drops. jm2c

as far as good deals, check groupbuycenter.com or just talk to ben at http://www.importparts.com

eh, expect more than that, my pro kit left me just short of 2" w/ gr-2s, ie, it wasn't a 1.3" drop by any means. either way do yourself a great service and get a camber kit installed when you do everything else, you will need it, thats a promise.

Koni are of course superior shocks to the KYB AGX, but we gotta look at the price difference.
Depending where you buy KYB and the koni the koni can be twice the price of the Koni.
For the money the AGX are a great deal, just like Kuhmo tires.
