which struts??

[jab11185]

here's the deal....i'm getting tein s-tech springs tomorrow but i haven't decided on the struts to get (mine are SHOT!:D)....i asked tein which struts they would recommend with their S-techs and they responded with OEM....i thought that the KYB AGX struts were good but wasn't all that sure....if someone has had the AGX's or OEM nissan struts and can tell me the better value, that would be awesome! :help

get agx's. the adjustability is great. imagine not being able to adjust the volume on your stereo, and where the volume is set sucks. yeah. that's how oem is.

kyb says that the agx's shouldn't be used for excessive lowering, but the s.techs only drop it ~1.5" so it's not a problem. i've had my s.techs and agx's for over a year and i've had no problems so far. a few other people have the same set up and like it.

if you have the $$$, also consider koni yellows

[jab11185]

how much more expensive are yellows?

[IlIkEmYz]

go for the agx. you won't regret it. you will get you money's worth

[driftaholic]

oh maybe around $100. iirc the rears are a pita to adjust though, unlike the agx's. overall i've heard they're better though

whats the spring rate on the S-techs?

I am off tomorrow and will be installing Tein S-tech springs and KYB AGX Struts tomorrow. I ordered it Monday and it came in last night I will be doing the install by myself. The person who owned the car before me had lowered the car by heating up the springs what a (*^&^^%&(*)(__(*&*(. Any way I will take some pics to show you before and after. Only the before pics the car will look much lower then the after pics. Sounds kind of weird. I will take a picture of the springs before I take them out. So you can see how bad of shape it was in.

Hey I installed my springs and struts today(KYB AGX and Tein S-Tech). So far I like the look and the ride
