both the mcv or svx10 are the same shocks but the only difference is their weight capacity ...

uumm?!?!? I've had my tokico gas shocks since '95 and they still pretty good except the car is way too low. And to this day they still are good...

Since last year on my 1997 and they are still as strong the day i got them.KYB and Tokico make much better struts then stock anyways so between both its just depends on what you get cheaper.

thx guys..
i just have KYB GR2 on my hand now...and suprise is they are made in japan.

and i m going to install it 2morrow.. tell u what i feel...

ok...i have my Kg/mm springs along with KYB GR-2 struts install on my car now...
they are smooth...
the ride still good( not as harsh as i think)
and good cornering.....
esp on high way... feel more stable...

they reason i get KYB over Tokico is "made in japan"
i would recommand KYB to ppl who concern about which struts to get...
