KYB AGX or GR-2 w/ Eibach springs?
I have been looking at these two sets for my 1994 Accord EX sedan.
If there is anyone out there with either of these components installed, please send me some feedback.

Eibach Prokit or Sportline?
KYB GR-2s are OEM replacements. If you have Eibach Prokits, then either choice is fine. If you have the Sportlines you'll need to go with the AGXs.

Thanks for the reply. Right now the springs are factory. I'm trying to decide between GR-2s with Prokits for $469 or an AGX set for $409. If I get the AGX, I still need to get some springs, right?
You can use the AGX with stock springs, but they'd probably be overkill.
What are you looking for suspension-wise? Do you want the lowered look? Firmer ride? Less body-roll? Or are you just simply looking to replace some worn out parts?

I have strut bars installed already.
I want to replace worn out parts and lower it a little. I can't lower it too much cuz I have a steep driveway and am worried about scrapin' my stuff.

I'd probably recommend sticking with the Prokits then. The GR-2s are fine with the Prokits, since the Prokits were designed to be used with OEM struts. If you would like more adjustability in your suspension, go with the AGXs.
Personally, I'd probably go with the Prokits + AGXs in your situation, but that's because I like to "fine-tune" the ride characteristics to my liking.

GR-2's suck. I put them on with my Tein S-tech's and they make this clicking noise, and they are really soft, so if you are low and hit a bump, watch out. They feel fine, like compared to some other cars out there ive rode in, but the clicking gets on my nerves. Who knows it might not even be the shocks. Anyways, AGX's ftw.
I have eibach sportlines with KYB agx and the ride is stiff and comfortable on the 2 setting in the front and 4 in the rear.
great combination and drop, rides like stock but firmer

You can't say that they suck because you used them in combination with a spring that was not designed to be used with stock struts. GR-2s are OEM replacements, and are not to be used with aftermarket springs. Also, I'm also pretty sure the clicking is <U>not</U> from the struts. In every case of suspension clicking that I've fixed for people, the struts were never to blame.

I hear ya...
I got the Pro Kit springs.
Do you know were I could find a set of AGXs for under $400.00.
I can get set of GR-2s for $250.00

I have AGX on stock springs.
middle setting on front and rears.
It stiffened up the car pretty nice and I always have the option to adjust and I can still swap out springs if I want stiffer.

How was your alignment after installing them?
Since I'll be using the new springs too, which will drop it 1.2", I'm worried about any alignment issues.

I've had no alignment issues with the AGX, but I'm on OEM springs.
