KYB Struts ....

[Powerzen2002]

Well, I think my struts are gone.  The ride inthe front is gettin
VERY bumpy, I mean ... pot hole sentive ... and over 65 miles an hour small road debri feels like 6 ft pot holes.

SOOooo .... i guess its time to change them. I was looking into KYB Struts ... any good?  Tokico is WAY to expensive for me.  I would like low-end performance that gives a decent ride, with good durability at the best price.

All suggestions welcome.  ALSO, what other low cost items are good to replace in the front end that will smooth out the ride a bit.

Thanks again!

i have the gr-2s and they are cheap and i dont regret getting them. &nbsp;but i do plan to upgrade in the far future, if the price is right.

Thanks for the advice. &nbsp;Now, do these have what in the front ... just struts? and shocks in the rear? &nbsp;Cuz im looking on websites and only found shocks for the fronts.

Thanks again. &nbsp;Also, do these gr-2s ... how is the handling? &nbsp;Is it boaty? or tight? ...etc...

I have the GR2 as well. Not bad, better than stock. They are not that stiff at all...which kinda sucks. &nbsp;I also have a Cusco strut tower bar and springs too so it all depends on you setup. &nbsp;Overall, GR2 not bad for daily driving and a few twisty tight corners here and there.

get AGX's... &nbsp;$350+shipping from K2RD.com. &nbsp;they are an AE86 and FC3S specialist shop. &nbsp;i got mine from them a few months ago.

I'm running with tokico's on my 86, its pretty stiff and i recommend them. &nbsp;Try to save up for them, its well worth it.

[Powerzen2002]

Hmmm, well ... I know the tokico's are much better qaulity ... but to much for me right now. &nbsp;I am just looking for something that is better than the stock. &nbsp;Not to stiff, but not to soft. Do you guys recommend keepin the stock springs with the GR2's?

Thanks.

The GR2s are intended as a stock replacement, they'd work great with factory springs. Lowering springs would likely be underdampened. . . I have Tokico Blues with Tokico springs, and it feels just slightly underdampened. Still great ride.
