Hello everyone,
I am just trying to get some inputs. My 03 g35 needs shocks badly, realllly bad...... I have been looking around and I liked the blue tokicos. But then I just came across these on ebay. I dont know anything about them. Are they good? Would these fit on the car eventhough its not lowered? Does anyone have experience with them? What kind of ride can I expect from these? Also My car has stock springs. I am opened to suggestions as well. Thank you very much below is the link.

Those are not nismo struts. You also get what you pay for, I wouldn't recommend buying those. so your best bet it to go with the blue tokicos, Sence you know your getting quality with them, and not some cheap struts off eBay.

I would have kept shopping after I saw the word "NISMO" with a price under $200...even their rad caps are going for $50ish now

You might search for opinions of kyb shocks on here. They are a little cheaper than tokico. I would cross shop on here, eBay and rockauto.com for the best price.

By tomorrow I will be looking around. Now For the KYBs, would the ride and handling be close to the Tokicos? Thanks

Since they didn't have sport suspension in 03 I think you should be fine. They might not be so good with z or coupe springs. I would type kyb into the search bar and see what comes up.

I didnt really notice any difference in ride quality. But maybe I dont pick up on those things well. Sounds like you are going another route though. Good luck!

Thanks for demo pics, wow that was a nice set and yea I am leaning more towards tokico HP blues, but kyb is also an option. I am just doing a lil bit more research and see if there is anything comparable with these.
