Default What shocks for my car?

I dont know between which brand to buy:

bilstein
Koni

Try doing a search
They are all great but are made for different things.Do you want to autocross?Or want comfort?It depends on what kind of ride you are seeking.

(non- Adjustable) KYB's by far, last longer and feels better than tokico blues, And very affordable check out http://www.coximport.com. Or if you want adjustability either one is very good

I've read a lot on honda-tech, and tons of other places. But I just dont know becasue I looking at more for comfort. I dont Autocross because I'm not going to do so for another 2 years or so. I'm just tired of going over a rock and bouncing all over the place.

Tokico Blues and springs on my car. did a world of differance. i also did the poormans rear camber kit and bought ground control front camber kit. 400 for the shocks and springs and 90 for the camber kit, but i also had to replace my upper and lower ball joints and my outer tyrod ends. i really like the 1inch drop not to low but adds alot of class to the look of the car. also the car handles great and its very responcive.

Kyb agx . You can adjust them to suit your driving needs. If you can afford it i'd go with Koni Yellows
