    keep it stock is better if you want smooth ride. AGX is adjustable so it you think the setting is too stiff/soft, you can ajust it. I know nothing about the tokico so I cannot say anything about it...

    I would go with the Kyb's. Mainly because I have them on my car. I drove around for a while with lowering springs and stock struts and the car bounced a lot. After I put the kyb struts on the ride was a lot smoother.

    i'm rocking KYB AGX with ground controls.. if u plan of lowering your car, it's gonna ride like ASS, regardless.. i think there was a thread about this before.. hrmm. are you gonna lower ur car, you homo? i cant find the ground controls with the tokicos that comes with extended tophats...they should be like 800-900. click for example

    or.... this.. i was going to get it before... Function and Form II. i should have gotten it since it came together. i probably wont buy separate shots and springs and put them together.. shipping is free.. 800 bux... pay it man.. rather than let cheap thing add up.

    I have been looking at the KYB AGX's for my car for awhile now and all the research leads me to believe they are a good bang for the buck not the best but more than sufficient. The way I see it if they are good enough for a supra they are good enough for anything else.

    I just put some KYB's on my car today and the ride is way more firm and responsive to the road condition. To me the were a big improvement over the stock ones that were already in. Hope this helps
