KYB AGX is a much more technologically advanced shock cartridge than the Koni.
Not only that, Koni's cost more & as you know, require modification for fitment. There is no rational reason to buy the Koni's anymore with an option like the AGX available. Simply, AGX is the new king of the jungle for the Maxima. Koni's *were* the best performance strut available for the Maxima, but their reign has come to an end.

KYBS direct replacement all the way One year warranty and you can adjust the rears from the outside, konis you have to disassemble to adjust reboun in the rears. Both good shocks.

"Steve,
The KYB AGX products are a Limited Lifetime Warranty. The warranty applies only to the original purchaser with a proof of purchase. The warranty excludes product that is mis-applied and/or abused. Excessive lowering and the use of Aftermarket coilover suspension kits constitutes abuse and will void the warranty.

So ground controls and Weapon Rs void the warranty on the KYBs, thats not fair to anyone here that already has purchased them. If you dont live in pothole kingdom and hit bumps hard the KYBs should be fine.
