GR2s give me the heeby jeebies due to the fact that they aren't really rated for the compression and valving required to run a lowered setup. I mean, I hear people talk about them and I haven't heard too many issues from them, but they aren't sports shocks by any means, they're supposed to be OEM replacements. But that's just me, I mean, when I jump into something, I go all in or not in at all.
But yeah, S13owner, good luck with your project man, like I said, I can't wait to see what she looks like when complete.
I would stay away from Tokico HPs with lowering springs, they definitely aren't valved for that. They work well with stock ride heights, however, when lowered they fail very early, those are the only "aftermarket" struts that I can honestly say are well below OEM spec. If you're going to go with Tokico, go with the Illuminas or D-Spec setup, although D-Spec . . .well . . .I can make a whole new thread on the woes and throes of D-Spec.
