I'm thinking about going KYB AGX's with Skunk2 lowering springs on my 91 S13. I had another S13 with Skunk2's on stock springs and it they were great. They gave me like 2 inch drop all around, I had the SE 7 spoke wheels and they never rubbed and had no body roll. They rode nice on most roads and ruff over potholes and railcrossings, but I guess thats the same with all springs. I wanted to know if you think the KYB/Skunk2 setup was agood idea?

Have paired those springs with the agx's on 3:F 6:R setting's with good results. Very responsive in corners, ride is a little bouncy but not harsh and relatively good aestetic appeal. I would say that if the S2's are already in your possession go for it. KYB's have been the best upgrade I have done to my car thus far

Sorry man I dont have any pics of the The car was an 89 with stock schocks but skunk2 springs on em. I bought the springs off ebay for like 160+shipping. The car had a really nice drop about 2 inches. I loved the stance with the 7 spoke SE wheels I had. I was really happy with them people complemented me all the time even people with coilovers. I have another 240 now a 91, from what red chief said I think im gonna go with the same springs but KYB AGX's for this one.
