Directly on the KYB website it says in the FAQ that struts cannot be rebuilt [http://www.kyb.com/technical/faq/faq07.php](http://www.kyb.com/technical/faq/faq07.php) and I would go the cusco/silkroad/kei office route anyday ---

They’re telling YOU that YOU cannot rebuild a strut YOURself. Same goes for tokico HTSs. You can’t just rebuild them YOURself. Well there is this… [http://www.kyb.com/technical/warranty.php](http://www.kyb.com/technical/warranty.php) And I remember specifically emailing the site I bought them from and asking if I can get them rebuilt if they’re blown. They may just replace them w.e. as long as I get a working strut. Alright please, tell me a quality shock for the AE86. ---

I would run either of those on my car. The point I do choose to run full dampers on my car I would either run the HKS hypermax 3 or the Apexi dampers. HKS has amazing customer service on their dampers and more than a few JZZ drivers swear up and down by the hypermax even the lesser hypermax2. I don’t think Kei office makes a damper for my car, many say the cuscos are incredible harsh and I only know of one person who has silkroads. I have also been considering Stancs gr+ pro but for the JZA80 chassis ---
