Does anyone know if they are going to be like the koni's? What I mean is, are they going to be inserts or the entire strut? Thanks if anyone knows

I don't know why everyone is complaining. Sure it is taking a long time to get parts, but it is a whole new engine and suspension. The companies need time to develop parts. Do you want underdeveloped, underresearched parts?? I wouldn't. The fact that some companies are taking awhile to develop and test these parts makes me happy because then I know i will be getting good parts.

yes they are. The illuminas allow for lowering and are adjustable. A matched shock and spring (like the HR cup kit) might be slightly better.

I think we covered this already like last week. But in case anyone missed it, I called Tokico and they said "The designs are being completed as we speak and they will begin to order around June. It usually takes 3-4 months for distributors to get them in full stock, so they will be available by the end of 2003." SO, we are all going to be "ghetto bouncing" until then, I'm afraid. And same for the KYBs in case you're interested. It'll be a bouncy summer kidz! Hope that helped.

Hard to tell what they'll go for when the designs aren't even finished yet. But some site had the KYB AGXs listed for around the same price as the Konis. Won't be any cheaper I'm afraid, especially if they're the full replacements.
