Default Shocks blown on 96 hatch...

My shocks blew and im looking for some good shocks that will have a nice ride, take a big drop, (coilovers) and not blow on me. I dont want the same thing to happen again. Any suggestions are appreciated.

konis or tokicos


maybe even look into full coilovers such as omni's or function/form for your drop needs

He wants to do a "big drop". AGXs aren't made for that.

Yeah, they're the best. When you get some money, buy some Ground Control coilover sleeves ($400) and you'll have a set of coilovers better than most of the Japanese/Chinese crap out there.
