I got a 96 EK hatch, finally got my KYB AGX with Ground Control coilovers.
How do you adjust the settings on it?
Front? 1,2,3 or 4?
Back?1,2,3,...8?
What's ur set-up?(ur own adjustments)
Thanks!

I got the 4 ways. I just set it at 2 2 for the road usually. If you want it stiff, 3 or in the front and 4 in the back feels pretty damn back breakingly stiff. Also if you dump the car you can feel some more stiffness.
3 and 3 stiff n' bumpy. but my car is kinda low. almost feels like i can drift. oh wait i did. broke a rim and a pole dented my rear quarter panel.. whoopz jumped off topic like the bus was on fire.
1-front 2-rear daily driving. Adds a touch of oversteer and is soft enough for comfort.
Play around, try all the settings before you settle on one. (1f 4r is interesting, especially when you go to take a turn and almost slide into a cop car.

man you guys are softies haha. j/k I go 3 in front and 6 in back. I tried 3 and 7 but I got understeer. 3 and 6 gives me almost oversteer (depends on the corners sometimes I get oversteer) weird huh?

I would guess, on the hardest setting. My reasoning is that at a lower setting you would bottom out too easily. I have mine set a 2F and 3R on S-techs= great ride.

i wouldn't recommend lowering your car 4.5 inches with the agx's. it's warranty is only for 1.5 or less and can get away with it for a while at 2. but 4.5 is pushing it. just my opinion.
The AGX products have the following approximate damping force values.
When adjusted, both rebound and compression damping forces change.
Setting#:
Relative Value
1 - Same as Factory 100
2 - Same as our GR2 products (10~15% firmer than Factory) 115
3 - 50% firmer than #2 172
4 - 30% firmer than #3 223
For an eight position adjustable product, the damping force values are
approx.
the following:
With #2 being Factory at a relative value of 100,
#1 = 95 (5% softer than Factory #5 = 143.5 (43.5% firmer
than Factory)
#2 = 100 (Factory damping force) #6 = 172 (72% firmer
than Factory)
#3 = 107.5 (7.5% firmer than Factory) #7 = 197.5 (97.5 firmer
than Factory)
#4 = 115 (15% firmer than Factory)(GR-2) #8 = 223 (123 %
firmer than Factory)

Thanks for the info!
So Should i lift my springs up a lil bit?
How long did ur AGX last? or how long will it last?

Was rolling on 2 Front 5 Rear for about a year. I adjusted it to 1/1 recently and immeadiatly it was smoother. Duh!!
Thats what I roll now, noticed more body roll though. My AGX are used in conjuntion with Weapon-R Dual Spring Circuit Pro Coilovers lowered about 2 inches all the way around.
