I know this has been talked about before but I want input based on my situation. My camber is off 1.5 degrees and I just replaced the Lower Control Arm and Spindle, which means either my strut or the frame itself is bent. I hope to god its not the frame...

Since I have to replace the strut with one from Nissan ($206.44) should I just replace all the struts with aftermarket since I am buying Maxspeed springs? If so which strut is good to keep the ride from bottoming and ride quality similar to stock?

I don't want something insanely expensive either... Give me options.

 

u have three options
1.Tokicos blue - no modifications req
2.Koni - mod req
3.KYB AGX - mod req, unless u get it from Cattman.


Tokicos - a stock replacement and heard its not good if ur have hard springs. some ppl reported it broken after certain amount of time use. About 320 for 4

Koni - not sure....

KYB AGX - adjustable, good performance shocks. havent heard any problems yet....but it is only being introduced for a short period of time. 380 for 4 (un-modified). 450 for 4 (cattman mod.) plus dust boot and hard wear....600 total.

 

How do the Cattman modified KYB AGX's ride?

 

seems ppl love it....that's my next mod if my gf approved the budget

or I have to go with the tokicos blue.

 

Will be purchasing tommorow. Thanks for the help man. I appreciate it. These go well with Maxspeed springs?

 

Don't leave out the KYB GR2's Great replacement for OEM and a little more control. They work very well with softer lowering springs. H&R B&G MaxSpeed

 

Are the GR2s available for the 2K2... If so how much?

 

nope, req modification...

the one and the only official anounced aftermarket 5th shocks are tokicos....sometimes I am really jealous of 4th gen...they have a lot of options to go with. Koni and KYB both have 4th gen ready shocks.

 

You can get KYB GR-2 for the rear no mods - see Tirerack.com and according to Galo rear Konis for 4th gens will fit 5th gens as well.

Tough choice, I know.
