    Well, what are you wanting to get out of your modfications? drag, autoX?

            The only way to get something "in between" is to opt for adjustables, and even then the spring rates that you would use front and rear for drag vs. auto-x are very different.

            If you are looking for a car that handles well on the street, Bilstein HDs and Eibach Pro-kit springs make for a pretty good combo.

              I've sung the praises of Bilstiens quite a few times on this forum, but I must admit that I have no experience with the KYB's. I've heard some really good things about them though. From what I hear, you really can't make a bad call here.

              Still, Billstiens rock! [img]graemlins/rock.gif[/img]

                    I would go with the adjustables. I put Bilsteins on my 96 RS and love the way the car handles, but I would have went with adjustable shocks if I had the extra coin. The Bilsteins are stiffer than stock, but not unbearable. The KYB's gas adjust shocks on my 69 camaro are much firmer than the Bilsteins I put on my 96RS. I also put KYB's GR2 struts on my z24 and the car handles much better. The ride is firmer, but no where near harsh. I think they are a decent strut for the money.

                      I heard that the KYB AGX say that they are adjustale but they are not as adjustable as other shocks is this true?

                      should i go with single or double adjustable?

                      what are other good adjustable shocks? (Konis are way to expensive)
