Default 90 accord with KYB/Koni/Tokico

Just wondering your guys experience with these three kinds of front shocks. I currently have tenzo R springs, 2.5in drop with bilstein front shocks and stock on the rear, on a 90 accord. Just lookin to get a better suspension setup, tryin to decide between these three brands and deciding whether or not to get different springs that give my a better ride, probably with higher ride, im nearly tuckin right now. Thinking about eibachs to probably replace my tenzo's. also wondering good place to get either progress or ingalls polyurethane camber kits, looked on GBC.com and i can get em for 130. let me now if you can get em for less, thx guys.

None of those shocks will like the 2.5 in drop, unless you get them shortened. I have the kyb agx shocks and have been ausing them for a couple years, and will probably get another set when I put in some slightly higher spring rates, currently using 200f 230r, I think. You can either get the koni yellows or agx's and replace them every 3-5 years or you can get some cus$$$tom koni $hock$ that are $hortened, and matched to your $pring rate$.

Koni supplies lots of one-off race stuff. If you pay them, they will modify one of their off the shelf shocks in just about any way you'd like them to. I.e. shortened piston rods, custom valving, double adjustability... etc.
