Search my man, search, there are SO MANY THREADS DISCUSSING THIS TOPIC ITS NOT EVEN FUNNY! But since you're new, I'll be nice. Go with KYB GR-2 or KYB AGX shocks. The AGX will last longer and have dampning adjustment. Welcome to TGC, and search before you ask a question next time. :)

I definately recommend going with AGX. I have GR2s and its only been 5 months and my rears are already shot.

What springs are you dropped on?

Tien-S

Damn, it only took five months, my stockers that I've had on the car since it was new lasted a good 8 months before the rears blew, and fronts were still ok when I pulled them off.

**airborneparainf82** · 11-09-2008, 11:33 PM

yeah the front are good, but I think just from a good bit of freeway driving, especially the drive from NC to AZ, they were being worked on those shitty freeways. Just sucks cuz I want to just do coilovers, but Im really needing to not spend this money I hate set aside. i might just ride it out a little, just annoying as shit cuz the car bounces around like no other.

**greddy** · 11-09-2008, 11:35 PM

You should ride it out, and get your dolphin bumper on and get the car painted, have you decided on a color.

**airborneparainf82** · 11-09-2008, 11:39 PM

no just all modding to my galant is stopping temp. since I go to school full time and dont work Im trying to avoid tapping in to my bonus $$ too much, so im going to be rationing myself off my GI Bill to set aside for the rest of the stuff I want to buy (skirts, hood, rear) I might end up holding off on the paint until later and just color match to what I got already. who knows.

hey sponcar if you ever see a north star white G with stock spoiler, black grill, and gold wheels, be sure to give a honk :)

I see, that makes sense, I'm in much the same situation you're in, but I have a garage full of parts that I don't need that I've been slowly selling and I work on campus about 15 hours a week.
