i have a 88 gxl 5 speed, the car is almost older than i am and the suspension isnt what it used to be. does anyone have a clue of what it costs to have it replaced, i like the fact that i dont have to get out and adjust the shocks to different levels like say an aftermarket one. ive got a feeling it isnt cheap right?lol. i dunno even know if mazda still has them in stock? or makes them for that matter? thanks fo rthe help

You'll probably be looking at well over $1000 for the auto adjusting shocks and struts.

i just replaced my old stock suspension with KYB AGX's from k2rd this week-end....easy to adjust, and kick ass...i wouldnt even consider getting stock suspension only for AAS.....you get more settings with KYB

How do you think they compare to the Tokico Illuminas?

the agx's feel more damped, the car feels more planted. if that makes any sense

how does it cost to you for your suspension winger ??

winger 08-28-2002 06:58 AM

$350 US and I rented the installation tool from Canadian Tire...you give them a $120 deposit and they give it back to you when you bring it back.....installation is pretty easy, lift up the car, take the wheels and speakers off, remove the bolts that hold the shocks in place, take off the shock and remove the coil with the tool, after that put it back together....one tip is to buy new bolts and nuts for each old ones.....it makes the job nicer and you dont get frustrated when you have to cut the old ones....
