    Neuspeed Race springs

    I just purchased some yellow Nuespeed Race springs. I was wondering what kind of struts/shocks you guys recommend. I drive my car everyday and would like something that could handle some turns. Thanks

    Not stocks that for sure. Go with some Koni Blues or AGX fully Adjustables....

        Koni blues don't exist.

        AGX are by definition adjustable....KYB is the brand.

        I would get either Bilstein or Koni yellow shocks.

        You can probably get away with Koni oranges on the cheaper route, but the bump damping might be lacking somewhat.
        There are no black and white suspension answers!!!!!!!!!!!

          I read it somewhere that AGX is not so durable compare to KONI yellow.

            I'm really leaning towards the Koni STR.T $300 to my house sounds like a good deal

                save the money and get the yellows. its only another $200 so you wait a mounth or two for a lifetime of better driving. also have you thought about getting camber kits? an alignment will be a must with that much drop.

                    Most who've had kyb agx's hate them after 6 months when they've blown, a select few have gotten good use out of them. At best they are inconsistent in quality.

                    Check out the neuspeed/koni shocks on neuspeed.com. These struts are specially made for neuspeed race springs and feature more height notches for adjustability and also a 20mm shorter rod to accommodate the drop.

                    Either get those or brand new bilsteins. The extra $200 is well worth the long term benefits!

                      KYB AGX and Tokico HP (blues) are not designed for an aggressive drop or spring rate. They should not be used with anything other than a very mild setup.

                      Koni Yellows are the best adjustable option. Bilstein makes some amazing non-adjustable performance shocks as well.
                      Koni STR.T (orange) are essentially Koni Yellows on the softest setting... where most street cars will be set anyway. If you are not racing your car, that is the best affordable option on the market.
