KYB AGX shocks, springs, sway bar thoughts...
 
So two questions here..
1. Right now I am riding on kyb agx shocks. Only real suspension mod, other than some lil tranny support mounts, and bumpstops. SO..should I go with Strano springs next or the Strano sway bar set? I am pretty deadset on these, and can only settle on one of the two for now, so what would be more noticeable/worthwhile?

2. For those of you who are riding on AGX shocks, what setting seems to work best overall? I believe mine are 4/8

i vote sway bars.

Normally, I'd agree with Craby....but since you all ready put aftermarket shocks on, I think it'd be more beneficial to do springs next, then sway bars.

the switch to the strano sway bars is a big improvement on how the car handles. springs just lower the car.

True. But lowering the car lowers the center of gravity, giving an improvement in handling as well. Not quite as much as bigger sway bars, but a little is still nice.

Springs. It'll take care of the whole spring/shock thing and you can move on from there. Rear springs are my next purchase, too-followed by tires.

I just might go with springs then. Now to decide if I should pull the trigger with Strano or just go with BMR springs...

Craby seems to really like those Strano springs. I think the owner of that company is a tech contributor on another site, too.

I am likely ordering the BMR's. They have rears with a one inch drop on fleabay for $130. Since I've already dropped the front 1.5", I don't want to be overly agressive in back. All that bottoming out on L.A. roads is just AWESOME.
