I have the opportunity to buy KYB coilovers for my S13, thats right KYB coilovers. Apparently, they make them in japan, but all we get in the US is the AGX line. Anyway, I have been searching my *** off trying to find ANY info I can besides the two pictures I have of them. Problem is, I cant read japanese, nor can I really DL the language packs that dont work because I have dial up and Im not doing that. Anyway I highly doubt any of you have experience with these so I wont even ask. But does anyone have a web site they could point me to, or even a tiny article about them, basically Im looking for anything to learn more about these, I might add the pics later if there is a demand, but like I said before Im on dial up and dont like doing "big" tasks.

Any info is greatly appreciatedJon

If you gimme links to japanese sites I can translate them for you and give you links back to the translated sites. It will be a rough,crude machine translated page but its better then nothing. I have japanese charactor support.

ONLY IF you give me a chance to buy a set of my own :D ...lol J/K,but hey if you really could..

you can use google to translate pages for you for future reference. I do it all the time and it works like a charm, I'm on d/u at work as well.

your exactly who Im lookin for, however from this response Im guessing theyre not the greatest, what would you compare them with or do you have no comparisons? Were you at least at one point satisfied, or are they absolute garbage

How do you have coilovers and ground control springs? I think you may be confusing your agx shocks with kyb coilovers.

From the website you gave above I can only find these coilovers.http://www.kybclub.com/html/Wajs.shtml Were these the coilovers you were looking for? I'm japanese and looking at them page they only have them for civics, lancers, impreza, and integras. If you keep searching and find me a link, I can translate the page for you.

I tried searching yahoo japan for the NSF9015 (the top numbers) and KYB K12 (the bottom number) but came up w/nothing. I can't make out the middle 3 lines, but it seems like they are warnings. The first line underneath NSF9015 says 'chiso gasu iri' which means there is nitrogen inside. The 'DO NOT' part after that is probably a warning to not open it. sorry couldn't be much help.
