Default Koni Yellows (confused)...need help quick

Ok...a friend of mine needs to order a set of Koni Yellows. The cheapest price we can find is $142 each, which is a lot more than he remembers seeing them for elsewhere. Anyone got any suggestions?

Also, we're a little confused about what exactly you're getting with the Yellows. On some sites they're listed under 'coilovers', some sites say they're just shocks and that a damper kit is sold seperately.

...confused....

550 shipped is much better...where'd you find that?


Edit: Also, I know I could search but...how's the ride in comparison to OEM shocks? My friend has H&R sports and doesnt want his ride being harsh with the Konis. So, do they have much effect on that?

i got my neuspeed "improved" koni yellows from neuspeed for $554 shipped. the shaft is 20mm shorter and have 5 perch positions instead of 3.

from neuspeed's site:
Neuspeed/Koni shock:
developed by NEUSPEED Race Engineering and working with Koni engineers, we have developed a fully externally adjustable gas shock absorber for Acura and Honda applications. These shocks are exclusive to NEUSPEED and fully adjustable in seconds with just the turn of a ****. The NEUSPEED/Koni shocks also feature an adjustable spring perch to level the car (5 machined grooves on the shock body for 5 positions of adjustment) - the most desirable handling position, as well as, a 20mm shorter droop length for use with lowering springs.


also, my ride isn't harsh unless i hit some rather rough pavement. i keep the shock dialed out to 1/2 turn from full firm on the front and rear...i like.
