Bump ?????????????????

The last I looked KYB didn't have a figment for our cars in the AGX, just the GR-2s. The GR-2s are stock replacement that are slightly stiffer than stock.

The AGXs would be way better if they made them for our cars.

agx shocks are excellent value and performance. i've given up hope that they will ever make em for our tibs. I had them on my old civc and it was an easy four setting adjustment knob where 1 or 2 were perfect for daily driving and 3-4 were nice and stiff for auto-x or if you wanted to really "feel the road" lol

so what would work best for shocks then i am in the market right now but there are just too many choices

Are you f-ing serious?!? Too many choices? You have either:
1) Koni inserts
2) KYB GR-2s
3) OEM replacements

Eibachs have been discontinued, and KYB doesnt make an AGX application for the tib. I would buy them in the order above, with koni being my first choice(if you don't mind the extra hassle), and OEM being my last.

Koni's are adjustable so if your butt doesn't like it, you can change it.
KYB's are not adjustable, but still equally reliable.
Not a big difference in price between the two, however installation on the Koni's is not for beginners.

If you got the money you could go coilovers. kill two birds one stone

how are the KYB GR-2s for ride comfort?

 

[quickfingerz]

The Gr-2's are pretty stiff.

but do they feel better than the crappy stock shocks?

 

[jctib69]

Mine will be installed later in the week... I'll update on ride difference
UPDATE: I finally got them installed and they make such a difference... My stockers had blown so thats y I notice it so much, but the ride is a lot less bumpy and crapy now.

 

[quickfingerz]

Generally Speaking:
soft shocks = better ride quality
stiff shocks = better handling

As for the Koni inserts they do offer the adjustability that i am looking for correct? And also in order to get these inserts installed where would i take them to get the work done since i have a lack of tools/ knowledge on something like this?
