Rep Power: 0 KYB AGX or Tokico DSPEC
I know Konis are the best for getting lower, but I don't want to have to deal with strut modifications. There are several review for the AGXs but I want to know more about the Tokico Dspec, I think less than a handfull of people have 'em on this forum, and they probably don't go here much. Does anyone know if its worth the extra money for the Dspec or should I just go with the AGXs?
Also, does anyone have AGXs with Neuspeed Race springs? How are they doing?

Rep Power: 0 i dont know much about the AGX so i'm biased towards my Tokico DSpecs. they go lower than the Blues. i'm using neuspeed sport springs but you should be good to use race springs and not bottom out. i've only bottomed out when i hit a deep hole or go over a speed bump really fast. the dampening is like night and day. so far i have no issues whatsoever with these shocks/struts.

Rep Power: 389 I would pick tokico over KYB any day, but that is just from reputation and what my friends say about the blues.

Rep Power: 0 thanks guys. . . Xenin, For the Dspecs, was there any drilling modifications required to fit it for your 03? I have an 04. Do you know anything about that?

Rep Power: 0 yeah, just drill the 4 holes on each strut to be 16mm. i took a 5/8 drill bit and then did a light dremel around the hole to make it 16mm. works perfectly. call tokico and ask if they make DSpecs for 03+ yet.
