Should I get the GR-2's or the AGX's?

[Aristotle]

My front schocks are completely blown and I need to get some new ones quick. Theres two GR-2s allready in the back and it would cost me 180 for two front ones. Or I can get AGX for front and back for 330. What should I go for? Since the AGX is adjustable, does it make much diffference in performance?

[PacManVR4]

GR2s are crappy stock replacments, AGXs are nice adjustable. Go with the AGXs or toss some GR2s on the front and save for some coilovers. Remember the car will ride alot stiffer with the AGXs than the GR2s, But if your sports minded at all go with the AGXs.

Are AGX's really that much better? My friend told me that GR-2s are actually stiffer. Does he just not know what hes talking about, or is there some truth in his words.

[offtheline]

AGXs are adjustable. SO simply stating that GR-2s are stiffer is incorrect. On their softest setting, AGXs may be softer than GR-2s, however on their stiffest setting... not a chance in hell.

GET the AGXs.

Thanks guys. Im gonna probably pass on your advice to my friend too. Whew, got to fork over $330 now.

[Axel Grungy]

where did you find all four agx for 330??

[spec-u-later]

Yeah really. I paid 390 shipped.

My brother knows someone who distributes. I might be able to get them even cheaper too if I buy like 10 at a time.

dang could be a group purhase:ylsuper my loley and humble .02

[Structure240sx]

[Axel Grungy]

I've never played around with the suspension b4, so this may be a stupid question. If you get the adjustable shocks, what exactly do you do to adjust them?

[Bronze MFP]

the front struts have little dials at the top of the strut (the part that sticks up into your engine bay) you turn with a small flathead screwdriver (supplied) and the rears have a dial on the exterior of the body you turn by hand. It's really easy.

and for the love of all things holy, get the AGX's!!! especially at that price. You won't be dissapointed. Being able to adjust them softer for daily driving, and harder for track or hard street driving is a godsend

[Bunta240]

Allright, thanks. Ima probably get the AGX's now. If you guys are in the So Cal area i can probably get some to you. Just email me at [email protected]. I dont know if this is with tax or if I have to add it though.

if you are going to be doing any racing at all...then get the cheap ones and save for coils. a friend of my has the AGX's and his car is lowered with ______ coils (can't remember which ones...i think Ebiach) but he hates them totally. there is no suspension travel and he bottoms out all the time. he is now getting coils to solve this problem.

[Bunta240]

Its all good. I have enough for both. Just trying to save what I can here and there.
