For science I think you should try this out and report back how your car performs.

Or better yet, take out your springs!

You'll get go kart handling since go karts don't have springs either

Tien is not an ebay brand. They still wouldn't be my choice.

The KW ST are garbage. KW is a great name, but their cheap stuff is not made by Ohlins like the race stuff is.
Yea...somehow I don't think LIC is going to tell me the ST's are the way to go for a entry level street only strut, if they were junk.

GR-2's are essentially the same.

The AGX are in the same neighborhood but anything over 2 and you're stiffer than stock. I'm running them on my wagon right now. I'd definitely recommend the yellows over all other stock but dude is on a budget. Best lower budget option is finding AGX's on sale.

As for springs...

Pink Wagon Springs.
Swift Wagon springs.
RCE Black Wagon Springs.
Crucial had wagon springs if you come across them.
B&G supposedly had wagon springs and so did Eibach.

That's all I can think of off the top of my head.


The wagon springs are a decent match with the AGX. Crucial would be fine. I feel like there was another one... a blue spring... Grrrrrr.

But the RCE/Swift. I personally feel like they'll be too stiff for the AGX and you'll end up over sprung. You can run the AGX at full stiff and it would be o.k. but I'd recommend the tanabe or the yellow for those 2 springs.

If I redo my personal set up again it'll be yellow/swift. I think that's the best daily set up for 02-07 wagon... period.
