New shock help
Guest_
Ok need new 240z shock Inserts for my struts. Just used Gabriel gas shocks and they lasted ok. But would like something but better, not adjustable, just so I could go little lower maybe. Any one with a shock book out there to help out?

I haven't got heaps of $$$ so budget end would be good. Using 250lb springs now too. The cheap gas were well suited to 195lb springs, possibly little more- unlikely to 250lb.

Might give the KYB GR2 inserts a try. Not sure of the prices for KYB products in OZ but their pretty low cost here.

I have the early Z GR2 inserts in my 1200 with 250# springs and it works great. Nice balance of spring and damping.

The shocks are 38 us each or locally $150 approx each!! Far out what a difference. Makes me wonder about taking chance on anther $50 set or taking chance on overseas transaction... Go aus $$$
Not sure on this company though
