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

muz....

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.

    • Chrome surrounds back on and polished up, no idea why some knob would prime a single piece 🙄
    • Well, in the same way that you can't tell any SUV from any manufacturer in any size category from any other one, "sports" coupes now all look identical. Stand back and squint your eyes and the Supra and the 400Z and the GR/BRZ things all look the same. I was just thinking last night, when sitting behind a Subaru CrossTrek, that I have no idea what it is, how it differs from an XV, or a Forester, or an Outback, or anything else Subaru offer, and I couldn't tell if it was supposed to be small, medium or large. I contrasted that to the good old days, where a HQ Kingswood had familial similarities to an LJ Torana, but there is no way that you could confuse them, and how a bit later, the HX Kinger and the concurrent Torana and the Gemini all had familial similarities, but you still could not confuse them. Ditto the ugly Fords and Chryslers of the era. But now, a RAV4 looks like a Kluger, looks like a Yaris/Cross/whatever they're calling those stupid f**king things, looks like every other Toyota that's not a Camry/Corolla sedan.
    • The Prelude doesn't look that bad without all that lens distortion in those pics. Makes it look disproportionate when it isn't. Actually I kind of liked it at the Osaka Auto Messe earlier this year. 
    • Pour in the highest octane, non-ethanol fuel you can get and see if the readout changes. If it's dead bang on 11% then I would question the sensor. Another quick test, just take it out and run normal (in an american accent) gas-o-line through it and see if the sampled ethanol or lack of changes.   United E85 here in the land of drop bears does vary a bit, I've had as high as E87 (could be water in their tanks too, who knows)
    • Yep. And if you ever do, you'll just have to deal with it then.
