Well, it will be more than a few weeks. If you are doing them this month, youll have to do the GR-2s...

I dont have an exact date that they will be available but I will let you all know. In 2 weeks, I will have alot more info though.



Thanks for being patient

Hey guys.....sorry about the delay.

Here's the good news AND the bad news...

The AGX model WILL BE AVAIL. FOR 99-05 Grand Ams. Period. No question.

The guys at KYB North America just recieved the test set from Japan(all AGX's are made in Japan). These are being test fitted to one of the guys at KYB's car....he has a bone stock GA. They recieved them on Sep. 21st....
I was supposed to be the test car HOWEVER since the guy there picked up a GA..Im not getting the FIRST set.


The bad news is that after testing, cause of all the business stuff, it takes a while to get a product to market..hell they are backed up with new stuff like the Colorado and such right now.

BUT like I said, they have produced them and are throwing them on a bone stocker..Id rather see it tested with Eibachs or something BUT either way.


Wait time:
I would say(and I am as disappointed as you) January. I know, I know I have a set of new Eibachs sitting in the garage just WAITING for a set of struts.

Keep the faith, they will be here....the handling is worth the wait to me. I only have 40K on my car....but alot of autocrossing and 2 laps of Laguna Seca so...

CHRIS

About $100-125 per strut. Figure $500 a set shipped. Thats the avg. price for retailers who sell Tokico and AGX's

Lightbulb ya i know

give it up already coupe . you guys automatically think we don ' t do our searches . been there , done that. and everyone is every where on this topic. so i am hoping some one or a few of you will come to some more concrete conclusions or ideas. to all you guys out there who like to nit pick. if i don ' t do any searching i will say so in my message like i did once before.
