tbourner Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 Does anyone know what the shocks from Fensport are like? http://www.fensport.co.uk/partsfiles/jza80chassis.htm There's the Koni adjustables for £99.99 but I can get yellow Billies for £107 anyway (Ibrar)! But I've never heard of KYB I don't know how good they'd be. Worth a go? I might be changing for Super Streets in 6 months or so anyway - depending on cash (and pay rises) in the next few months.

tbourner Posted February 26, 2005 Author Share Posted February 26, 2005 Are they any good? What kind of setting is required? I need closure!!! Sorry but I need to change my shocks asap really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SatSport Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 There's the Koni adjustables for £99.99 but I can get yellow Billies for £107 anyway (Ibrar)! But I've never heard of KYB I don't know how good they'd be. Wouldn`t go for those self-adjusting KYB`s. I have the 4 stage KYB AGX`s which are a better bet and are adjustable in-situ. rgds Roy.

paul mac Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 i've got the 4 way adjustable konis they are a great ride and a quality shock that should last but to call them adjustable is being a bit generous as you have to remove the shock to adjust so realistically once there set, there set and thats it, i think the adjustment is designed more to take up a bit of slack as the shock gets older Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zed Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 Michel, is your suspension sold yet or is it still vailable, I'd be interested in bauying it if the ride isn't too harsh. Cheers mate !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLicense Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 I have the KYB shocks. I was told that the stock OEM non Bilstein suspension is actually a KYB unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zed Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 I'm fairly sure that, on the UK spec at least, that the OEM suspension is TOKICO. You can see the name pressed into the metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbourner Posted February 27, 2005 Author Share Posted February 27, 2005 So essentially the Koni's are an OK bet, but no to the KYBs unless I want similar to black Toyota shocks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLicense Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 I'm fairly sure that, on the UK spec at least, that the OEM suspension is TOKICO. You can see the name pressed into the metal. Quite possible as the J-spec and the UK OEM units are different I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
