Shocks and Struts

Im planing on buying the front and rear KYB GR2 struts for $53.17 for rear and $58.77 for front each and the Full set of lowering springs by Eibach which will make a drop of 1.4 for front and rear. They cost $287.93 So all together i'm spending $511.81 Do yall think that is good for suspension . I will be installing my self up at the tech center when i get everything. Please let me know if there is another way to go or if i could find this set up cheaper and if my set up is going to be okay. Thanks latta

Sounds about right.

hell yeah dude, make sure you go see the new Transformers movie coming out early August, lol Im not a star treky person, nor a star wars fanatic, even tho the star wars movies were good, and im not one of those japanese anime, pokemon, video gamer 24-7 people, but in my opinion...Transformer's were and still are the shit lol.

I would go with the KYB AGX's over the GR-2's.

I'm gonna have to agree, That's what I had on the 2.2 and it's supposed to be the best suspension set up for the J's.

There is better things out there for the J's. Just not everyone has $1200 for the tein SS coil over system. Thats suppose to be the best or Gravana's system he had built and desgined from the ground up. I have the Eibach Prokit and Kyb AGX's and love the ride it gives the car, but due to my ever growing curiosity i would like to try the Tein SS one day. I just like the fact that with the tein kit, it gets rid of your strut mounts and has camber plates instead, so 1 it gets rid of the fact you won't have to deal with bad strut mounts anymore, I have personally blown 3 sets with my car, and you can get some positive camber. But thats just me.

Wouldn't it make the ride alot more stiffer tho? Compared to the KYB/Eibach setup.

Well i'm about to place a order for the kyb's with the eibach springs setup as well because i cant afford the agx's so im getting the gr2 for right now i just need sumthin good for right now i think thats a good setup so imma go with it... because later maybe next year or mid part imma change again to air suspension since its goin to be my car show ride.

well you have to go with what you can afford. and since you swapping out next year anyway who cares. good enough for now. oh yeah and do you have anything done to your car?? pics??

if you're just gonna be swapping them out then why not go with cheaper OEM ones from your local parts store?

When the OEM's blow and leak oil everywhere... then you'll know why it was a bad choice. GR-2's are OEM replacements.

I hear ya but why pay more if he's just replacing them within a year or so anyway? Oem ones shouldn't go that fast.

ahhh who cares its not your guys money. if thats what he wants then so be it. to each their own.:)

Heh... 2 wheel bearings, 2 cv shafts, 2 sets of struts mounts...

yea.. I will do things right. Riding on blown OEM struts with aftermarket lowering springs will only break shit. Been there done that.
