Will Gr-2 in front and gas-a-just in rear provide a stiffer more responsive ride then factory? I want a bit more response but don't have the money for Koni str.t. Gas-a-just is a step above gr-2 and supposedly GR-2 are 10-15% stiffer then stock. *Wish I could get gas-a-just all around but can't find them in strut form..

Anyone ever use this setup. BTW stock springs and won't change.

I did this on my old 89 hatch and they worked well for the price.

With stock springs they will work fine.

They are both gas shocks but the gas adjusts are stiffer then the GR-2s. I would run the GR-2s on all 4 corners for a more balanced ride but thats just me.
