Yea I just checked ebay and they're 180 shipped. Now I'm just making calls to see who will put them...and for price of course.
My question is what makes KYBs good? Why not just go back to oem parts? What do they offer that oem doesn't? Are they reliable and how long do they last?

Sorry if I am reviving a dead post but I am in the same boat as AreYouIn. . Car has 90k on it and I can tell the shocks are going the way of the Dodo. . . I dunno really how to check the springs. .

I am really only looking for a OEM or better replacement these GR-2's sound really good for the price. . . Also no shop should charge more then $100 total for install of shocks. . And what does the warrenty cover that you were looking at ? seems like the warrenty is around $100 that you were looking at. . What all does it cover ?

Anywho. Just looking for some info. And how long do springs last ?

If I didn't bump into the deal I bumped into on my Tein springs and KYB's, I would have had the Tein basics when my oem shocks/struts started acting up. My other car has the Tein SS coilovers and they are downright sick in the corners.

Your sale is a good deal it looks like. But they already have 30k on them and from what I am reading GR-2's are about the same as the SE-R's. But then again your's has Springs with 1/3 the mileage mine do. . Hmmmmm

How much for shipping to AZ 85212?

And do the spring rates matter that yours is setup for a 3.5 and I only have a 2.5 ?

Thanks for the reply.
