KYB Gr-2 gas shocks
 

Anyone ever use these? i tried the search but came back with no result.. i was wondering because they are $30 for fronts and 40 for rears a piece and they are at summit racing which is pretty close to me.

ok for street use period

good for stock hieght, had them on my 90 integra lowered 1 3/4 inch they got a bit soft after a month or two. but they were an improvement from stock.

I have them on my car (installed when I purchased). They're ok, but a tad on the soft side when I am tossing it around the auto-x course. Combined with an older set of ST springs, the ride is good until I hit a larger bump (the normal kind in Ok). The bumpstops get plenty of action on those occasions.
The GR-2 is really just a small step above the factory shocks/struts, only because the stock units weren't gas charged.
If you are looking for more than just good ride quality, consider stepping up to the Tokico HP. For best handling, the Tokico Illumina. They cost more, but both will give better handling than the KYB's when you're asking for all she has.

GR-2 is great on the baja.

those shocks are terribles. i had them on the rear of my rx7 and the rebound rate is extremely low. Even when new when i went over a big bump the rear susp. hung in the air and came down hard. the worn out stockers had better rebound.

these are very cheap shocks. at least get the tokico blues or kyb gas-a-just.

They're fine on the baja. I agree that I wouldn't use them on a 7.

I have em on my car, they were on the car when I bought it. I havn't driven the car enough to tell you how they are.

I have em and those prices aren't bad. They work fine unless you autox or do track events, then its worth upgrading as they probably don't handle the stresses and heat as well.

I've got them on the rear with Racing Beat springs. On a semi-smooth track like MSR in Cresson, TX, they were fine except when it came to the "Rattlesnake" complex. On the street, they're good enough because of all the poly bushings on the bars and suspension. I've noticed that they def lose the battle to big bumps, too....back end bottoms out every time...not as bad as stock, but they still bottom out. Unless you're going to compete, there's really no point in going to more expensive shocks. Spend the money on exhaust and intake for a difference you'll appreciate every time you step on the pedal.:D

:cool:

eh already have a header...exhaust so ill just spend a lil more on shocks/struts... are there any that are stiff but non adjustable?

Tokico Blues.
