No offense vector, but your car doesn't look like it is driven very hard.To really tell between struts, you have to actaully take some corners.The GR-2's are replacement struts, bottom line.They even say "replacement struts" on the side.They are identical to our factory struts as far as stiffness goes, they just have gas instead of air inside to prevent foaming.Oh and by the way, why did you switch from the weapon-r's

I agree. there isn't anything "Stiff" about the GR-2. Got them on my car since 98 and they have faded in terms of performance. However they are good replacement for the budget minded. I guess I shouldn't have gone drifting with them...

none takin, but my car does have 96k miles on it, and it was drivin hard and raced hard...more than 50k miles on the gr-2 and I have no problems with them...i happen 2 have a set of stock shocks the other day, and i compared the 2 and the gr-2 are about .5 - 1 inch longer shock travel than the stock ones. like i said, i have not had any problems.
The weapon-r's I had where the first gen ones with a urthane top hat/bumpstop, and the spring sits on that...and it started to tear...so i got some skunks now

Hehe my car just rolled over to 96k also.
