KYB Nova Shocks?

[vaughanmc]

These any good ?

How much could they make Forsale ?

Cheers, Vaughan

depends which ones surely. i know my mate bought some fixed rate uprated ones and they did make it handle very well.

i had some on my old 2.0 corsa too and they want too shabby :thumb:

not sure how much you would get for them mind

[burgo]

i think they are only about £120 new so not alot second hand

They do Gas and Oil shocks, you'll be looking Gas if your lowering.

They are budget shocks usually sold by motorfactors as replacements and I wouldnt recommend them for a performance car.

But for a roadcar they'll be spot on.

[vaughanmc]

Would be for a road car, might have a set up forsale soon

Freshly painted in yellow

Would £50 seem reasonable for them ? They came off a Nova lowered 60mm all round

i had a set of kyb's on one of my novas. when my brother had it on the road it handled well..but they were the gas ones (orange)..

yeah £50 sound ok aslong as they are in good working condition mate..

[valvercorsa]

had these on a few nova's and corsa's. the damper on gas one's goes around 1 inch lower than a set of koni adjustables i had on nova lol was well shocked.
i liked them not as good as my coil-overs tho :)

[vaughanmc]

Aye the condition is good, no leeks or anything

I'll see if I can get them shifted for about 40/50 quid :)

KYB do Black, Orange & Gold specs. I had the Orange ones years back from Novatech IIRC & was chuffed with them.
KYB are big in the US & especially in the Beetle & Bus scene.

[burgo]

do you know the differnce between them craig as im basing my opinion on the gold ones

[novarobbo]

well my corsa had the gold ones.. dint know they did all different ones myself

I use KYB Excel Gas shocks all round with my H&R springs. Have to say for the price I'm very happy, seems to have matched well with the springs I got. No one has complained about ride comfort or handling in the 18 months they've been in use.

[vaughanmc]

Might have a rear set forsale but not sure at what price lol

Any valuations ?
