i have GR2's on my Cutlass (but you knew that) but the other KYB struts aren't available for my Cutlass. BUT, i really like the KYB GR2 strut and have heard nothing but good about them on the w-body forum fwiw....

I have gas a just shocks on my laser. They're paired with Eibach springs. They seem fine. But it's hard to tell how well they really handle since I haven't autocrossed yet. I've always heard the GAJ's are better.

????!

not sure what your thinking about but it's not a KYB gas-a-just!

gas-a-justs don't actualy have a user adjustable setting like you might think from the name. This is taken from KYB's GAJ web page:

Multi-stage valve compression enables the shock to adjust to driving conditions automatically. Under gentle road conditions, the valving allows maximum ride comfort. As conditions get rougher, the valving makes the shock response firmer to maintain tire contact and vehicle control.

Anyone wanting to find out the diff. could have tried KYB.com!
