How do you compare the vavling on different shocks. What unit is it measured in ? How do you describe the difference tokiko/kyb/koni?

Illuminas are very popular with other import drivers. However, I have to doubt that they are superior enough (if at all) to the AGXs to justify the huge price difference. I haven't seen Illuminas for anywhere close to $350 shipped like the AGXs...

Ouch ... I'd go Koni yellows for that kind of budget, at least you know the Konis are mad durable. Or sell the springs and for a few hundred more, get yoself JIC coilies.

well the agx's were not really designed for a 2 inch drop..
then again i am sure these were not also.. agx will not honor warranty if you had sprint springs on the car
