Hey guys i am in the market as it were for some shock absorbers. I was just wondering what brands are good and what to stay away from, i dont really wanna go to coil overs just yet. but my shockies are worn really badly and is giving chronic body roll.
Any suggestions would be awsome

KYB AGX are the adjustable ones
KYB Excel G's are the non-adjustable ones

if budget is your biggest factor you could probably get some KONI's for cheaper than the Excel G's...

imho a decent strut/spring combo can perform as good as a set of coilovers, without the height (and possibly camber) adjustability.

Try Dave or Nikki at Cruisin Autospares at Nambour (5441 6411). But don't waste their time or Dave will strap you into the Fat Lady and take you for a ride.
