Aren't both just for stock replacements pretty much? and won't last being lowered for long.

The HPs are a slight improvement over stock and can take a mild lowering, perfect for "street" lowering springs. The GR2s are slightly worse than stock and aren't designed for any lowering or performance application, perfect for cheapasses.

Heard that the HPs are crap. Go KYB AGX

GR-2 and the HP are both basic struts.. but GTS Jeff hit that on the nail. the GR-2's are poor.
go with either the AGX, illumina, or koni's if they make them. but if you're hurting for money, the HP's are fine for a mild lowering (<2")
