Hello all!
Has anyone replaced their ARC shocks with KYB, Bilsteins, or any other high-quality, non-adjustable shock? I need new shocks, but always ran my car in the "firm" setting anyway, so, what's the point of spending over $500 on Tokico Illuminas, or stock replacement at nearly $800? Believe it or not, even though the Tire Rack people offer a KYB conversion shock, all they can tell me is that it requires "Extensive Vehicle Modification"! So I called KYB, and THEY don't even know what is needed! SCary! LOL! Anyway, I'm sure somebody out there has done this- and I'm not afraid of cutting or welding a shock body or something, I just don't want to buy a different sway bar or something that will reduce the performance of the car and cost a lot of money, too. Any suggestions are appreciated! Thanks, SCott H. (k2k2)
