Whats the difference between adjustable coils and spring?

Classic XE · May 13th, 2002, 10:14 AM

Im looking to get ST coil overs with the KYB's AGX. I know the adjustable can be height adjusted, and the springs cant. What are the pros and cons. Need help.
Thanks, David.

I don't think ST makes adjustable coil overs for Nissan AGX shocks.

The only ones that are any good for Nissan are Ground Controls.

Arospeed, Rickey Racer and Weapon R are junk.

Mike, you are 100% correct. My bad. Not ST, but GC. My friend put them on his B13 SE-R. Havent seen it yet. Any comments?

As long as you don't adjust them too low, you will love the handling.

I'd probably go down about 2". Plus my area floods during rainy season, so I want to go back up. How high can I go with the adjustables?

You should not go lower than 1" with stock length shocks.

AGXs aren't stock length, right?

Yes they are, the short shocks are GC AD shocks, Truechoice, Motivational or Shigspeed.

Mike, what do you think about the Motivational shortened struts? They are pretty expensive compared to the AGXs. Are they really worth it? Is the extra suspension travel worth the price?
