cheaper alternative to koni's or tokio

[SHOstopper]

I need to get new struts and springs i was wondering if anyone had any suggestions i can afford to buy ebachi springs but i can't afford koni's or tokio's can i use KYB struts with ebachi's. or even that can i just get new stock springs and KYB struts, can anyone tell me if it lower's the car at all or handle's alittle better thanks for your help Jason

I'm in the same boat.

you can use any strut with a stock spring, its just not going to ride as good. just do not try to run aftermarket springs with stock struts because it will probably be bouncy. eibachs and KYB struts should work, i am not sure though, i didn't know they made KYB for our cars

Ask SHOmuchFUN about his set up.

I sold him a set of Eibach springs and he bought KYB struts

See how his car rides.

A few ppl on the list have used the KYB GR2 struts. I myself will be too, with my dad being a dealer, cant go wrong for all 4 struts at a cost of $225 CDN dollars with taxes... thats abouts $140 AMR dollars... way cheaper... and better than stock.

Were can you the KYB's in the US or does your dad import?

Wow, $225 CDN!!?? Care to sell me a set of those struts for that price or close? I need rear struts/springs but for that price I'd buy all four. Care to help a fellow Canadian out eh?

Not sure about availability in the states for KYB, just check out their website and check for local distributors in your area. My dad goes through the dealership at his cost, because he owns a used car lot. Nice deal for me... Im just waiting on my lowering springs if i can find em to order my struts.

A guy in my SHO club got Gabriel VST's, I'm not sure on the availability (I think he got them from a local auto parts store). Anyway, he is very pleased with them.
