D-spec vs. AGX post up your experiences
Sunday, February 20, 2005 11:11 AM
here is something i found on tokico's website
These are the main problems with my current Intrax and GR-2 set up
Characteristics of worn or weak shocks:
• Instability during braking
• Excessive brake lock-up
• ABS engages too quickly and too often
• Poor adhesion on rough surfaces (i.e. crossing; railroad tracks)
• Harsh ride quality

I know the GR-2's arent blown, but i think they are too weak. I am looking at both the D-spec and the AGX to fix these problems.

If you hae either on your car post up the details!





from http://www.tokicogasshocks.com/evaluating.html
Characteristics of worn or weak shocks:

• Excessive rebound or “float”

• Wander or poor tracking

• Poor steering response

• Too much body wallow or lean during lane change or cornering

• Corner to corner pitch (corkscrewing motion) during cornering

• Excessive dive under braking

• Instability during braking

• Excessive brake lock-up

• ABS engages too quickly and too often

• Poor adhesion on rough surfaces (i.e. crossing; railroad tracks)

agx's are great i would like more adjust ability but they ride fine. for a car with so much grip. i have taken some guys for a ride and these are people with new vetts and gto's and the are just amazed how quickly the car change lanes. and a girl with a gto had her face pressed against the passenger side glass lol i told he to hold on lol it like my own private roller coaster ride

The next course of action should be to show them how to drive their cars ...


I've got AGX's too, good stuffs, and cheaper as well. <500 on e-bay
