okay, I need new shocks, dont' have the $$ for something nice like tokico illumina, Koni Red, or Koni Yellow.
my budget is around $200, so I was thinking of getting the KYB GR2 for the front and KYB Gas-A-Just for the rears.
anybody use these? you think they'll be okay with the stiffer springs I've got in?
I too am curious about the answer to this...
I'm happy with mine. GR2 front and GAS-A-JUST rear. Ijust wish the rears where a little stiffer. The fronts are great. Even with the weight of the v6. I got my setup from www.tirerack.com http://www.tirerack.com/suspension/Susptabl.jsp?category=Shocks&scat=Shocks&category=BootMount&scat=BootMount&autoMake=Nissan&autoModel=200SX+SE&autoModClar=&autoYear=1987&brand=all&perfcat=premium&x=94&y=12
Actually I got a pair of kyb gr2 for the rear that I've only used for a month to change over to drag shocks so if you want them I'll sell em for $40. The only thing is that I took off the endlinks and used them for mine. Pm me if u want em.
GR2's are pretty much just an oem replacment, you should look into Tokico HP's, if they even make a set for the '12.
problem with tokico is that nobody local carries them in stock. have to be ordered in.

I just see it as, if your gunna spend the money and time doing it, may aswell spend the few extra bucks and get improvment...
