    Default AE86 KYB Adjustable Shocks??

    Hi

    Wondering what part number for the KYB adjustable shocks to suit with lowering of car approx 2-2.5" and also springs to suit recommended.
    using the standard stuts.
    Do they come in short stroke also?
    Where to buy them from and prices would be appreciated.


    Also does anybody know what other steering racks fit into an AE86 without any modifications?


    Cheers

    Partial answer:

    You can get all KYB products through Auto One stores.

    Cheers

    I've got a pair of rear KYB shocks from an AW11 and some springs, if that's any help...I think they fit.

    a set of kyb celica st205 shocks will set you back about $170ish and there 50mm shorter. not adjustable, just the excel G, but they'll mach nicely with some stiffer springs (anything above about 5kg they get a bit bouncy)

    Also consider GABs, which I believe are made by KYB.

    I'm using KYB short stroke (set rate) shocks in my AE86. I think they are out of a AE101 corolla, let me know if you would like some part numbers.

    As far as I know they are readily available in Australia through any Auto Parts retailer.
