what struts should i buy KYB or TOKICO witch is better?
GR2s vs HPs. I really don't think there's much difference. I suppose the HPs may be a bit higher quality. Whatever floats your boat.
AGX vs D-Spec: AGX are excelt for drop springs up to 1.5", no coilovers. D-Spec can take just about anything so long as it's sensible (about 2" max usually) including Coilovers.
Any of them will work. I suggest AGX in your case.
But you can get away with the GR2s or HPs.
yea i was thinking about HPs from nopi
iam going to use tein high tech springs with HPs is this a good match.will i have to use a camber kit?

no get the right struts. hps arent meant for a drop. read the faqs
i did iam only droping 1inch.thanks for the info c.t.s.
if you got hps then you got the wrong struts
im going with tein h-techs and tokico d-specs and should be a awesome combo from what i have heard!

hah the CRX dosent have Macphearson setup does it? Plus thats a totally diff car man. you will be much happier in the long run w/ KYB AGX's.
it has hps and tein 1 inch drop
and tokico says that HPs will work with oe springs and lowering springs so
I dont see the point in the whole arguement, they tell you what struts to use (personally id go with AGX's), then you say how another car has them blah blah. You will blow them in time, and far faster than with a performance strut. If you're gonna spend the $ to lower a car, even 1.1in (i did 1.4 myself), atleast do it right, you'll regret it later if you dont.

yea in that car, its also 10x lighter too. every cars suspension is different. not everything that works for one car will work for yours. hps are
oem replacements. will the handle the drop, yes. will they blow alot sooner than expected, probably. do it right the first time and you wont have to worry. you can get agxs for like 100 bucks more
ok i bought the AGXs is it easy to adjust them.thats why i was going HPs i did not want to deal with adjusting them
i left mine on 2 (front) and 4 (rear), with really good ride quality and handling. My new rears are blown (leaking oil all over), and should be replacing them soon, but even with them shot she doesnt handle too bad, but ride is rough from the back.
I have gold lines on Dspecs and love them.
I blew a strut a couple years ago, and I don't plan on doing it again.
Don't lower on stock struts, not a good idea

very easy to adjust, on the fronts its a little screw type device that clicks into one of four positions. and the rears have a knob on the lower portion of the strut body that you click into one of eight (i think, may be 10, its been a while since i looked) positions

yes they are easy to adjust they should of came w/ directions on how to adjust them. you should be able to adjust them from the top of the strut w/ the knob.
i called and asked Tokico about the Hp's and lowering up to a 1.5" drop and they are lifetime warranty against blowing. why would they give a warranty like that if they would blow?
not trying to start anythign just asking because i just got them in the mail.
they are even coming out with a full spring and hp setup that drop it 1.5" with warranty.
