    What's everyone running for shocks currently?

    Looking to lower the beat a little bit. It's got a little more wheel gap than I'm happy with. (I'd like to avoid coilovers for now)

    I picked up some mild RS-R springs, but I'm not sure what options are available for the shocks. I know KYB has the "New SR Specials" which are supposed to be a small upgrade. What else does everyone have in their cars?

    not many people have upgraded over here but general options are mugen, halfway and maybe 3 other Japan specific brands that pop up on the auctions, mostly coilovers from what I see

    Hrm. Okay. I don't suppose anyone has experience with the adjustable GAB setups that show up occasionally?

    I have Mugen suspension on my beat and find it great, massive reduction in body roll, lowers it enough and not harsh on the road at all

    I have increased the front sway to 25mm and installed FOX coilovers. See Hayabusa powered Beat in the for sale area.
