hi guys, i'm researching a suspension setup for my r33 and i came across " KYB AGX Adjustable Suspension ".

i read a few reviews from seemingly happy wrx owners but thought i'd check with you blokes.

i found my info by searching on yahoo. could not find anything on skylinesaustralia search.

any thoughts?

thanks............

Had some of these in my first 180 and was very impressed with them, particularly that when you adjusted the damper setting you could actually feel a big difference, unlike most systems I've tried.

I was really happy with them combined with 5zigen springs, great for the street. I'd get them again

cool, thanks phunky monkey.

i was starting to think that no one had heard of them.

i can get these at a good price so i think that i'll give them a go!

thanks for the reply

For what it's worth, KYB actually make the Nismo shocks.

Gotta be happy with that.

cheers

no sh*t!  i wonder why so few people have heard of them?

Does this mean that they are an inferior product compared to say the more reputable ones like koni's, bilstiens ect???

what?

why would they be inferior if KYB make shocks for nismo, seeing nismo is big up in there on the performance upgrades. KYB is good, kyb make most suspension on standrd cars, along with alot of other parts.

I have kyb agx adjustables on my s15.... They are ok. I bought them because I wanted the adjustability...

Having been in a few cars with bilsteins and konis, they are much better.

Apparently the reason it feels better is because the valving is a lot mores sophisticated.

I think you will find most racecars have european shocks. Japan is good at making many things but shocks isn't there strongest one.

    • I'm actually not sure - I think it was "Stealth Performance" (It really is near impossible to find a FEMALE 1/8BSPT to 1/8NPT male at ALL) but having the thing leveraged on a 90 degree angle on a small aluminium fitting is not too smart. Also in not too smart, I've drilled out the center of the broken fitting so there's maybe 0.00001mm of thread to bite into, so yeah. I may have to get it drilled/tapped/plugged entirely. Given I could conceivably tap a thread/adapter/pressure line in any point in the oil system I suppose it's feasible to run a line to the Nissan Sensor to keep the dash working. Do these exist in AN fittings and the like? Like an AN fitting that has a NPT (or other?) thread as well for putting a sensor in?
    • I would agree.  There will be an amount of boost you could run safely with an otherwise factory system, but it would be low enough to not be worth the cost.  And if you are reliving your 20s, you know a 'little bit' was never enough. Personally, if I didn't want to spend the money, then stick with NA bolt-ons, and maybe a tune.
    • Fuark, at least the motor survived. What brand was the fitting that snapped?
    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
