I put them on my 97 hx and very pleased with them, it does take a little while to break them in though but it rides so much better. I got mine from summit racing and looked up the gr2's for 92-95 and they are $223.66 + $11.95 shipping to my town since I don't know where the op lives but it comes out to $235.61, the rears come out to $51.88 a piece and the fronts are $59.95 each. IMO I would just save a little extra and do all four together since it doesn't really cost that much more.

I got a complete set for my girlfriends coupe in February for about $230 shipped. They are great shocks for the money. They gave it a much smoother ride, but I was replacing her shocks that has 120K+.

These are NOT performance shocks and if you are aggressively lowered, they wont last long.

you can actually find them on ebay but I really didn't pay a whole lot more and wanted to buy from a more respectable establishment also someone that would be there if something was wrong. Anymore with ebay you really have to watch a lot of them now the sales are final.
