My CB7 and my ex-roommate's CD5 both had Skunk2 springs.Originally posted by 2lowcb7 View Post
He had Tokico blues, I had Skunk2 shocks.
His car was at least 1.5" lower than mine.
His car may way a little more than the CB, but there's no way in hell it accounted for 1.5"

Spring perches are high like the AGX. You're better off with GR2 , HP or STR.T for basic lowering.

Yea the gr2's are nice that's what I was thinking of gettin until I just heard how comparatively inexpensive these dampers areOriginally posted by Konigstiger View PostComment

Adjustable dampening? Would that by any chance be like ajustable shocks except these are dampers. In other words I can still adust the coilover anywhere from stock height to total slammage but just not the length of the damper itself....Right?

You can adjust the height, but not the stiffness/softness of the ride.Originally posted by TuneAccordingly View Post
