no, what shock do you prefer. if you're willing to spend about $350, you can get some KYB GR-2, or some tokico whites, which are both good. if you want better of coarse you're going to have to pay more.

For $350, Koni Yellows are out of your price range unless you pick up a used set somewhere. $350 will get you a set of KYB AGXs, Tokico Blues (which suck hard), maybe Koni Reds (?). For that kinda money, the KYB AGXs are probably your best bet unless the Koni Reds fit in that $350 budget.

Tokico Illuminas for about $350 shipped via ebay
Koni Reds for about the same via ebay.

HT vendors may have other deals for you, shop around.

those would be the 2 I would choose though
