Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

I need shocks for my CRX and i can get tokico's and kyb g-2 shocks for the exact same price. which ones do you guys recommend? are tokico's really better than kyb's?? which should i get? thanks

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

Just spend a lil bit more and get KYB AGX's, but if you cant afford it, id go with the tokico's, just get some good springs.

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

tokicos suck. We've blown many sets.

Don't skimp, spend the extra cash and get the AGXs, they are worth it.

Don't buy cheap springs either...

you get what you pay for...

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

Agreed.Ive had both an the agx are the way to go.

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

I love my AGX's. I was in the same place you were when trying to buy, and everyone told me to shell out the extra for the AGX, and I was not disappointed. Got mine from Tire rack for a reasonable price with some H&R springs.

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

Which Tokicos are you referring to? I have Illumina's with tokico springs and the ride is almost exactly the same as my friend who has KYB AGX's and H&R sports (both adjusted the same) I bought these used and got a good deal, otherwise I was going to get AGX's and GC Coilovers.

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

well i got some cheap coil-overs and they ride fine. they dont really bounce alot or ride rough like most i've seen. so i should be good there. i've been using the stock shocks ever since i put em on (like over a year ago), and i think its time for new ones cuz the stockies are going out. i am on a budget right now so i dont think the AGX's will be an option. the regular tokico's vs the regular kyb g-2 shocks? which are better? ---- i always thought tokico was the way to go but i know for a fact that the kyb's are good also. i just want to know what most of you would put if it was your car/personal preference?? thanks for all your opinions

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

i got dropzone shocks on my coupe, and to my suprise they were way better than the tokikos i had before them, and they are cheap of ebay. like 180 for all four

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

ah come on..... i just want your opinions :-\ i know the agx's are probably best but i gotta budget to stick to.

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

sounds like those cheap coil-overs probably have a low spring rate. either set of shocks should be fine. i would take the tokicos over the regular kyb ones if they were the same price. what's the warranty on both?

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

well i was just gonna get 'em off egay for a decent price. enter "crx shocks" and nothing but kyb g-2's and tokico's come up. shipped and all, its about $215-230 for either......so which do i get? as you can see i'm bad at making decesions :-X

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

Just to beat a dead horse. You can't go wrong with KYB AGX's. I've had a few different shock setups and these are by far the best ones ever. The only way I'd ever change these out would to change to a set of Tein coilovers. I use Tanabe springs just so you know.

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

---- yeah, thats legit! as you can see my broke ass cant afford nice things like that so help a brotha out 8) i might just go with the kyb g-2's for $205 shipped and they come with a lifetime warranty, so i guess you cant beat that

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

$205 shipped sounds good to me :)

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

do NOT get teh G-2..they are crap

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

ah come on dont tell me that! :-\ i was just about to get em! why do they suck? see this is why am wondering if the tokico's would be better for about $225 shipped, but i dont think they come with a warranty...

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

I like AGX

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

you guy arent helping......NO AGX!!! I'M BROKE!!! :P

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

AGX's would be GREAT!

















I guess that doesn't help either :P

You should see what you can get these for

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

i know of one 5g civic and two 91+ MR2 that uses G2..
they ride/felt/drive like stock shocks. COMPLETELY STOCK.

now if you want stock shocks i can get you some used ones, just pick kit up. :P

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

if ur broke, ride on blown stock struts until you get enough money. easy solution dont u think?

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

werd and you will only have to save up an extra 100 bucks, and you'll still have some change left over ;)

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

or, you could just buy one shock, i've got one 8 way adjustable 99 integra shock on the back of my civic, ofcourse you have to modify it abit, it will still work. 8) feels just like you have 2 shocks out back, seriously.

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

it should feel like you have two shocks in the back, because you should have 2 ;)

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

lol you guys are crazy! i just ordered the kyb g-2's for $205 shipped and lifetime warranty. ---- it! hopefully no more bang bang from my front right shock! ;D

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

i got gr2s but from an integra if that made any difference
stiffened up the ride quite a bit and the cornering was awesome

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

one is blown.

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

yeah, i need a bit of stiffening in my suspension. car/motor are good....but suspension sucks ass!

Re:Tokico vs KYB (shocks)
 

G2s blow, way to go, dumbass...

obviously you don't care much about your car... ::)
