My dad's race car has KONI shocks...So I'd consider them being top of line. Nothing on that car is cheap, about 100k invested into it, I'm sure he got the best shocks he could get.

Koni's are probably considered the best on the market, the yellows anyway. the tokico's are a bit cheaper in price. I run the tokico's and I love them.

I see alot of people running tokico's. KONI is prob known as the best, but whatever you want for your set up, you prob don't need KONI's. save some money.

and why would that be? I have a 'real' coil-over set-up that is custom, to my specs, rebuildable, and cheaper than most JDM coil-overs....

My Konis completely own my old KYB AGX's.

KYB's are definitely okay - great for the price. But for like another 150$, you can get alot better shocks.
