Hey guys, I was reading a Mike Kojima article and he mentioned GAB shocks. I tried searching Gab shocks and the search brought up Gabriel shocks. What are Gabs, where are they from?

So GAB is like a coilover version of KYB? I don't think thats right.

GABs and AGXs are close, but I believe they are tuned different. KYB made both shocks, and the GABs were out before the AGXs were.

Those were the days. Paying twice as much for GAB adjustable struts that turn out to be the 99% the same as AGXes on a shock dyno.

I used to drive on Tokico blues because KYB took forever to start selling the AGXes for B13s. Couldn't they have just put KYB decals over the GAB logos? Arseholes.
