15631, NEED TO SELL ASAP brand new AWD tokico HP blues shocks
Posted by BeAuTfLdiSaStErx, Jun-16-03 01:35 PM
The guy sent me the wrong shocks, he ended up sendin me AWD ones, instead of the ones for my GS. I am in desperate need to sell these as I cant find the seller on EBAY anymore to return them. I will sell them for 250 dollars. PLEASE email me beautfldisastrx@hotmail.com ... this really screwed me over!!!

FYI, the struts will bolt on to your GS. Unless he really screwed up and sent you the 1st gen struts. Only difference in the GSX struts are that they have an approx 1/2" taller shaft.This translates to approx 1/2" higher ride height. For future reference, GST/GS/RS strut are compatiable with one another. Only difference in te GSX is stated above.

You shoudl only have to purchase new rear struts, rather than a whole kit. Double check this on Tokico's site to make sure part numbers match up though.

Best of luck.

You know I had the same crap happen to me on ebay...Bought some Prokits for hella cheep and the guy sends me AWD drive versions.

Contact ebay and file a complaint. Look under the "HELP" section or hit the "LIVE" help link. You can dispute it and have EBay try to get you your money back (less 20 bucks i think...) and if you used Paypal, they have a buyer complaint form as well. Don't let that bastard get away with pushing AWD products on you. I was going to do all the above mentioned stuff but my seller finally just refunded me.

good luck

edit: don't wait too long, i think they both have a 30 day time limit from when you payed or when the auction ended

Unless you know that they will not work for a fact...

There is a few SoCal DSM guys that are running around in GSX GAB/KYB struts on their GSTs as it allows for a better grip during a launch, short of full on coilovers.

I had them (KYB GR-2) GSX rear struts on my RS for years, and now they are on my friends car (98GST).

If you get a chance, put the two side by side, and find the only difference is the length of the piston shaft.
