Kayaba (KYB) """Gas Adjust""" are great for road/rally use

very very good shocky indeed

& yeah , of course reco arm pins etc & Hi-Los, But you can easilly just set your rear brakets up on the wheel alignment machine to point the wheels where you want them, no need for adjustable brakets really,

those coil springs are not really a necessary item, good bling factor tho.
