I thought they showed something but I looked again and didn't see it. Do you mind linking me? OMG

I swear they had it, but I can't find it either now. Maybe they quit selling them.
 
ya i been looking around cant find them cause i need to replace shocks and springs on my 1g fwd, anyone have suggestions were to buy them?
 
I was jsut about to press the order button for my agx's and then came across this thread.
Since i am 90 percent street and 10 percent track would it be better for me to go koni yellow in the front and agx in the rear? I want to use ground control coilovers. Would Koni all around be a good set up? Its just that i care about what i buy not so much how much i pay. If i pay big bucks (over 300) i want it to be nice for me. It sounds like you agx guys wish you would have gone koni. Is the agx a stiffer ride????? I cant seem to make up my mind. Maybe i should just go koni and forget about it! (Even though they are slightly more money!)

Slightly more?? I got my agx's for about $360 + shipping, the KONI's are about $620 + shipping.

Personally, I thought the front AGX's were not stiff enough for me. A little too soft. I love the rears just fine. The 8-way adjustability gives me a broad range to choose from for street and track. They are still relatively stiff than your regular shock even at the softest setting. Just to warn you.


Thanks Kyle (Super Duper Moderator :p :laugh: ) for the link. :thumb:
 
You can also get them from Tirerack I believe. I didn't look at the other sites to compare prices, so I don't know that it is a better deal. I had Konis on my awd and they were great, even lowered 2 1/4". They still worked when I took them off. Adjusting the rears is a pain in the ass, so maybe go Koni in the front and AGX in the rear. You can do the same mod that RRE did. They used to have a page that said how to do it, though I don't know if it is still there.
