The Ground Control dual adjust shocks/struts are nice as are the Strange Engineering shocks/struts.

I, myself am trying to decide between those 2 options.

Both are made for the CRX.

You can get the Ground Control Advance Design Shocks/Struts from Ground Control or any Ground Control distributor.

The Strange Engineering SHocks/Struts can be Purchased direct from Strange Engineering or from any Strange Engineering distributor.

Kens Kustom Chassis is the only Strange Engineering dealer that I can think of off the top of my head that has anything to do with Hondas

its for a 89 crx. Sorry about that. I have oem on there now. :D lifetime warranty i usually just change them out after a day at the track. The oem lasted for 2 track days last season and lasted ok on the street for a while but I need something that will last for a while. I know oem is stupid but that is all i had at the time to use.
