Buying Struts...I need opinions
 

I was wondering if anyone has tried any of these kinds of struts and what you can tell me about them...

DROPZONE STRUTS
TOKICO HP STRUTS

any info would help alot... thanx

I poop on both

^^^ He poops on everything..LOL

Is your car lowered? If you want a stock replacement just get OEM, but if you have lowering springs and blew your stock shocks because of it, save up and get something better than those. Tokico's are fair quality. Check the group buy section for some deals on Koni and Omni Power.

pm astroboy about the koni reds he has for sale.

At least start with Koni Yellow.

Wow, 4 replies and no one has told him that his car doesn't have struts?!?

Ok, I know I'm probably gonna get flamed here, don't panic, I'm really not a dick...

Keep an eye on the GB forum and buy the best SHOCKS you can afford... I love my Koni Yellows.

most people on here swear by Koni Red's (which astroboy has an amazing deal on) and Tokico illumina's. I have illumina's and love them.
But tokico HP's, or blue's as most people know them, are pretty crappy. My brother had them on his car and it rode like a tank.

if u can afford yellows that would probably be a really good investment. if u dont have that kinda budget illuminas or koni reds would be ur best bet if ur lowering ur car.

yeah that was exactly what i was planing on doing... lowering my car... but i'll look into what you guys say and think about it.... thanx alot

What do you guys think about these kind of struts???

kyb gr2
kyb agx


are these any good??? how would they compare to the koni red and yellow and the tokico illuminas???

I have AGX's and they're pretty good. I have never had ay other shocks on my car while its been lowered to compare them with, nor have I driven another car with a comparable setup, so I couldn't tell you from experience how they compare. But most people on here will tell you to get Illumina's or Koni Yellows for their respective price points.

Basically like this...... Koni Red < Tokico Illumina < Koni Yellow

I would actually say that the Koni Reds are equal to the Tokico Illuminas in quality. The Illuminas are adjustable whereas the Konis are not (well not fuly anyway). Any Koni product is a very high quality and unless you absolutely need adjustables, the Reds will be perfect.

The GR2 are just OEM replacements like the HP(blues). Astroboy has Koni Red and Yellow for awesome prices too.

how much do illuminas or koni reds usually go for?

Pm Astroboy like I mentioned above. His prices can't be beat.

:thumbup: illuminas :D thats what im getting!
