kyb voids the warranty if you drop your car over 1 inch. This is for all of their struts, so the AGX's are included. (last time i checked anyway)
I have kyb gr-2 with prokits...it performs well. On flat roads, it isn't bumpy...almost a stock feeling, but much better cornering. On rough roads, though, they feel like any other aftermarket struts...you'll feel it all (and I have stock tires)

pro kits lower the car about 1.2 inches...so it already voids the warranty. It's ok though, I've heard of people who have done 2" drops on their cars with no problems. It'll be ok with neuspeed sports...it's only about 1.4 inches right? I heard that eibach is more for ride comfort and neuspeed is more for performance...so my guess would be that you might feel the road slightly more than me. I doubt it would be a big difference though...regular roads should feel fine for you. I rode in my friend's car before, he had koni's, but even on good roads, you could feel the road (when my car drove on it, i didn't feel it).

Exactly...I am about to go with H&R springs or cup kits. Neuspeed does not make their own springs and I don't like that. I mean, they keep their reputation by having unknown manufacturers making their springs, strut bars...etc. for them, but I'd rather stick with a company that makes their own products, just my opinion.
This shock setup is exactly what I am thinking to go with, since I am kinda tight on budget. Cheapest setup I've ever heard

I would recommend the KYB AGX. You might not adjust it alot but just knowing you can is well worth it. I adjust it softer if my family will be riding in it and stiffer/sportier like when I'm driving.
I think the GR-2 is just a performance shock for stock springs, but maybe for Eibach Prokit or a simple 1" drop.
You might want to get the GR-2 cause its cheaper but if something goes wrong you will need to get more shocks.
