KYB AGX shcoks
 
*****************Updated Again*****************
This GB will close on end of Monday 25th Sept assuming we have enough signed up for 5 full sets


Hi,

I am in need of new dampers. There have been 2 GBs done before I think.
Anyone else need some as well as me so we can get a discount?

Dave M UK 31 August 2006 10:29 AM

Could well be in
 
I am also in need of front and rears-can you confirm these are available for
98 classic turbo..........keep me posted /cost etc etc.

mike_94_wrx 01 September 2006 07:36 PM

i can do with rear dampers for 94 wrx saloon

TomCat 01 September 2006 10:49 PM

Go for it!
 
I definitely recommend the AGXs!!

On my MY99 UK wagon I went from KYB OEMs & standard springs to:

KYB AGXs set to 2 front & 4 rear (may try 3 & 5 next)
Eibachs
Whiteline adjustable rear ARB set to middle hole & solid droplinks
Full geom setup at Powerstation

and the difference is amazing!

The car fells much more planted, corners about 10mph faster with no roll, and the back end doesn't wobble like it used to going back over raised white lines after overtaking.

fulla organised the last GB on AGXs at buypartsby - I paid £332.81 delivered for a full set

There's probably still a group buy on the whiteline kit & Eibachs at Demon Tweaks - Dave Featherstone's the man! 01978 663042

Do a search for kyb agx and there's plenty of good stuff written. Most people seem more than happy with them:)

Need to phone the guy and leave payment details. When he gets enough for 5 full sets then they get ordered and the payment taken for them.

Geddon 11 September 2006 06:58 PM

So only 1.5 sets more needed.
I need these real soon so will leave this until 25/09/06 to see if this gets filled. If not I shall have to go get some anyway.

Anymore for anymore?:)

Yeah- I have eibachs too:D

Dave M UK 13 September 2006 05:48 PM

I will have the fronts too if it helps so now we only need 1 more to come in with us

Dave M UK Full Set Classic

Geddon 15 September 2006 09:10 PM

Bump- only 1 more set needed:)

Dave M UK 17 September 2006 08:46 PM

Dont give up on this group buy geddon, we only need one more guy so may as well hold on as long as we can.

May be worth poaching someone off the wanted or private for sale sections,

ricardo_wrx 17 September 2006 08:59 PM

Might be interested, although Id need to find out the differance between standards and KYB?

The KYB AGX are way better than the standard set up, for a start they are adjustable both front and rear in terms of hardness, not sure on how many settings they have, think its around 8 ranging from soft to hard depending on your requimnets and driving conditions, they are also better made than standards so will last longer and according to what everyone else thinks for the money you cant buy better, do a search and im 99% sure you wont find a bad report from anyone using them.
