We did just replace the original shocks though. Went cheap with KYB but the ride quality improved tremendously over the worn out shocks.

The ride is "smoother" as in it doesn't bounce nearly as much when taking bumps. It's easier to control. Daughter noticed right away and said it's not throwing her all over the place. Cornering is far better since it doesn't want to roll as much.

Pros: ride quality improved, smoother
Cons: went cheap

I bought a few parts back off of it, including the nearly new KYB shocks I put on it that I then put on my sg(they were sg shocks).

Pros: good condition, reusable
Vehicle: Subaru Forester

I currently own a 90s car. Ginagamit ko siya for daily use but I'm planning to have the coil and shock absorber replaced. My priority is comfort. Question, ano ang mas makakapagbigay ng comfy ride? Stock KYB shocks o adjustable coil over?

Pros: priority is comfort

I don't have a lot of comparison points, but I went Fox and love them. Great ride, but not at all sloppy, and really improved the handling.

Pros: great ride, improved handling
Cons: not at all sloppy
Part number: 985-24-084

My truck only had 80K when I changed the front shocks and coils with KYB. Totally different ride than before. It now steers like it's on rails with very little steering wheel input. Change the coils no matter your choice.

Pros: different ride, steers well
Mileage: 80000 km

The Excel-G (which I believe are called the GR-2 now) are stock replacements. If you just want to freshen things up, they'd be fine, and with a mild drop I think they'd be okay in terms of longevity (but you never know). If you're looking for a performance shock though, the GR-2 is not it.

Pros: stock replacements, fine for freshening, okay longevity
Cons: not for performance
