KYB-AGXs & Teins S's!

[bronzerleaf]

Just wanted to say that today is my b-day! and I ordered Tein S-Tech springs. Got them in the mail. AWESOME! I ordered KYB AGXs also, haven't got them in yet but Im really looking forward to installing this combo. I'll give a little review about the combo in a week & half or so. Anyways, excited, can't wait to feel the handling on my baby afterwards...

Woot! :drool:

Happy birthday, and nice combo. :)

happy birthday, I am getting my KYB AGX's delivered today and will order the tein S-TECH's very soon. Can't wait to hear your thoughts on them.

Where did you order your springs from?

thanks... I got my springs from Ebay. $134 including the shipping. Got them in about 5 days. Ordered AGXs for $365 shipping/insurance... altogether.
Will let you know how it goes when all said and done :)

I got them from Ebay as well. I originally wanted the Koni yellows but they were a pretty penny and if I could of bought those, I could of bought coilovers...SO, I got AGX, the next best thing and like I said, it was all on ebay(sorry I didn't point that out). I got mine through a company called Performance Parts Store. They sell there stuff online but you can search for KYB AGX packages on ebay by entering "KYB AGX Celica" and a list will come up. They are all pretty much the same price range. hope this helps!
Thanks everyone, my b-day has been a blast...gonna go watch the movie Constantine now...

I heard that when you install new struts it lowers ur car just alittle is that true with teh AGX's?

I have not heard of that... But, it may be possible. The only thing you can change is the dampening with the AGX setup. Dampening changes the stiffness of your struts/shocks; it won't lower your car more or less. I know your car is lowered when you get coilovers but I don't know much about them.(Correct me if I'm wrong anyone.) Perhaps Bluebomber knows? I am doing lowering springs at the same time (of also doing the shocks/struts). I will take some before and after pictures so people can see the variation from before and after. I will be going from Stock setup to KYBAGX/TeinStech... and a small little review. If I get them in by Friday afternoon, I will have them installed that day. Ciao

I've heard using Koni Yellows may lower the car, since they use inserts instead of full replacement struts, but they're the only ones. All other aftermarket struts are stock height full replacements.

I'm hoping to get my s-tech's this friday as well and if so I will be installing them along with my KYB AGX's saturday. I'm going from stock struts/eibach sportlines to this setup. Altough I love how low the car is now I can't wait to have new struts in place (no more lauching the car on bumps on the highway).

Hey, man thats sweet...Can't wait to hear about your review also. I will post up on Friday, my shipment for my struts comes in on Thursday; I'll post up on Sunday or monday and maybe you can add to it by then...your thoughts on it of course. :thumbup:
I think this will be good since so many ppl recommend this setup for those who don't want to go the distance "moneywise" and go out with a full coilover setup. I think a lot of people are genuinely interested in this setup more than any other since it saves a lot of money. I have not seen anyone show comparison shots of before and after from the setup. I know it will take a few months for it to completely lower the springs to a full 1.4 inches,but, I think his setup will be most idea for those who want a fairly well rounded setup for daily driving. K, gonna quit my rambling... Enjoy your new setup man!
