Strut/damper options for GD3?

Anyone know of a good strut or damper for GD3 besides T1R S Spec Dampers? (Which are now discontinued)

look in the suspension section. Lots of discussion.

your question is far too vague. you gotta let people know what your driving intention is, whether its comfort focused with a bit of sporty feel, rock hard racing with just enough cushion to drive without shattering your back, etc...

J's Racing Shock/Spring package.
Showa Sport dampers.
Spoon Dampers.
Mugen dampers.

Do one of those.

^^ Tokico HTS (Red) if you can find them. Check with RedShiftChris, I believe he sells Koni shocks and struts that work with the GD3 but I could be mistaken.

Sorry can this be moved to Suspension?

Thanks for the ideas guys, I didn't know there were more options than the t1r.

I'm looking for daily driving with adjustments for drag racing a couple times a year.

so you want something that has a much stiffer rear setup. look at spring rates of setups available and get ones that have the rears a lil less then front, example 350lb-in front, 300lb-in rear

I've got t1r s coils already so it's just the strut or damper part I need to replace the stock ones.
