Im confused on the whole shocks and struts issue. I called PST to order what i thought i needed, which was shocks and struts. I was going to get the kyb agx shocks and the N2 gas struts. Is that right? Because the guy told me i only needed four kyb agx for the car. Also could anybody tell me where i could tokiko shocks, struts or whatever it is that i need to get. Thanks

Listen to him. Our cars don't have shocks.

B-13 Classics use a strut at each corner.

B-14s and early B-15s use struts up front and shocks in the rear. I dont know what the new B15 uses in the rear.

What else should i buy along wiht the kyb agx? The car has 200,000 on it, so do i need to buy some of those parts that are on the tirerack.com page under the kyb agx? Thanks again

I would get spring perch "gaskets". They are formed rubber rings on either end of the spring to reduce noise. I would also get the flat bearings for the front struts. You are probably a prime candidate for new bushings, too.

Oops, very true. I guess I had my head wraped around classics for the moment and forget about the lesser se-r's :eek:
