Deadlock, what is your full setup? Coilovers or springs? How much of a drop? What setting do you have your kyb's on? How do they handle the rough NY roads?

And if you want the best of both worlds, get GAB Super HPs. A bit pricey ($643.80 for the set from www.alamomotorsports.com) but they have very nice damping characteristics that are a bit nicer than Koni Yellows and adjusters with actual settings like KYB AGXs or Tokico Illuminas. Of course once you combine them with a set of GCs you're not exactly in cheap-ville anymore. The shocks are basically the same as what comes in GAB's Revo Stroke II coilover set which runs about $1400, so the shocks plus GCs is at least cheaper than buying the whole GAB coilover setup.

GAB = :thumbup: if you're willing to drop the cash.

Nope, you have to grind off the water drain hole on the strut to allow the GC sleeve to fit flush onto the strut. KInda a pain in the ass at first but it's well worth it.

Can someone give me a little more info on this. I have the same problem with my skunk2s and want to get them in all the way so they are sitting flush.

Thanks Luc
