I have them. Pretty good so far. A little stiffer than stock SE. My friend has an SE and when I installed KYBs, they were a bit stiffer. Also, don't get the KYB strut mounts...worthless piece of s.h.i.t

i don't care about stiffer, stiffer is better, i just don't want them going soft like Toks do.

I heard the Tokicos go pretty fast but some people have had good luck. Never really heard KYBs go out too fast. That is the reason I got them instead of the Tokicos

We all know Eibachs arent low enough...

With Sprints you never hear "Dude, I thought you were going to lower your car."

ya the eibachs aren't low enough for me, i might stick with the them for now though and get sprints or GC's later, depending on how much the VB costs me. I need teh Gr-2's though, i can't wait for the AGX's. I've gotten that comment a couple times and it ****es me off, the eibachs and h/r just bring the car to where it should have been stock. it's a good inch too high to begin with.

Just installed H&Rs and GR-2s about 500-600 miles ago. Around town, I can barely tell the difference between the stock ride and the new one except that I can corner much better. The first time I had been out on the highway since the install was this past weekend on the way to MAXUS, and then I finally felt the rougher ride -- not too bad, but about 10-15% worse than stock.

Re: STEVE


thanks andy, but the springs are a iffy item. the shocks/struts are a must. i have to see what happens with my vb first.

Hey EZ

Why do you say the KYB strut mounts suck? I will need to replace mine shortly. They are making noise. I was considering getting the KYB ones. So any info would be great.

Thanks
