So after looking it up, i'm looking for new shocks for the dropzone springs. Because GR2's are stock replacmennt and the drop is 1.5", they aren't what I want. I don't need the luxury of Koni Yellow's either, I wanted a basic spring like a Tokico blue, etc. Is there no choice between the $200 gr2 and $600 Koni Yellow?

Thanks!

Dr.

The GR-2s make a world of difference on a decade-old car. But if you're dropping that much... the KYBs won't be happy. Call dropzone and ask them what they think.

I'm pretty sure those two struts are the only ones made for our car. You could ghetto-rig something, but I'd say either spend a lot of money on the cosmetic drop or spend less on performance springs.
