Re-shocks

sold my malibu · 06-10-2008, 01:59 AM

Hi gang
been gone a while
My car is off the road right now so It is time to do some maintanence.
I found some nice ceramic PBR pads and some powerslot rotors.
While I had the wheel off I noticed the shocks appear to be stock if not the orriginals.It is not a tems car.So I am asking around on what is a good performance adjustable shock.
Also The front end has been dropped on the car (before I owned it) will this affect my shock choice do the change in travel?
by the way if anyone is looking for these pads I found them online at Import Replacement Parts I could not find a parts store in canada that carried them.My buddy got me the rotors at a local parts store for $ 69 a piece (no point going fast if you can't stop the thing)

kyb GR-2 dampers are very good non adjustable stock replacement/slight upgrade. basically a plain damper good for everyday use

If you want a performance adjustable, go Koni. I reccomend you stay away from tokicos, they are cheaply made and i was not happy with mine when i had the on my mr2.

If you want a performance upgrade, I wolud recommend Tein adjustable coilovers. Maybe a electronic controller too.
This would be my choice.
