I have both and prefer the excel-g for 90% of driving.
Owner reviews for shock absorbers
I just put them in all my shocks! I’m also pretty sure KYBs were OEM albeit a bit different (when I removed the original KYB struts on my aw11 they were silver instead of black) so far the new ones feel great!
I run excel g's on my 1j cressida. Kyb isnt "cheap" let alone the excel g's.
Kyb is the opposite of cheapo in my experience. Rock auto kyb should be oem or better. I’ve used them on other cars
I'm running those exact shocks on all 4 corners and it's the best handling car I own. They work great
A 2” lift on Bilsteins 5100 shocks is the best bang for the buck.
Can't go wrong with billstein 5100's set at an 1 1/2 lift to get the extended travel out of em.
just did Bilstein B6s. I generally want an OEM feel, but tires are so much stickier now, so going B6 made sense.
I currently run Bilsteins, but looking to change to BC Racing ones. Only cos the rear on the Bilsteins don't go low enough (3 finger gap at the lowest rear setting).
I have a Ford transit connect and after 3 mos my gabriel shocks bottomed out absolute CRAP!!!
