Hey guys,

I was wondering if it would be a good idea to have tokico struts in the front, so that i don't have to cut my struts and koni's in there rear. From what i understand I do not have to cut the rear struts in order to install the rear koni shocks. Please clear this up if i'm wrong. I figured it would be a weird match but i've never really worked on my car and don't know too much about how to. So i figure since i'm going to try to put in the shocks and springs myself, i would go with the easy way to do it.

The front struts take most of the weight, so if anything you'd want to put Konis in the front and Tokicos in the rear. Or you can wait til summer and buy KYB AGX's... it doesn't look like they'll require cutting like the Konis and they're adjustable.

I'm still holding out for the AGX. I loved them on my Integra. Absolute favorite shock I've ever seen. My friend had Koni Yellow Adj on his integra and we both agreed the AGX were far superior in performance driving and in comfort.
