I don't quite understand your Q. Are you looking for 4 shocks? If so then you can just buy 4 shocks from those who sell it individually.

Or are you looking for a package price for 4 which would be cheaper than if you would buy them individually?

i suggest bilstein HD's or Koni yellows over any tokico shock, they are much stronger.....if you are really concernced about handling you can purchase the "neuspeed koni yellow" which is valved for neuspeed sports (which are very similar to H&R sport) and it is also a bit shorter to allow more suspension travel (which is good) and it has more perches i believe than the standard koni yellow. IF you are set on Tokicos though, the only one i suggest is the Illumina...the blue will not hold up very well with H&R sports.

i didnt say they werent good...but they are nothing compared to a bilstein HD or Koni yellow...even Koni red or KYB AGX is better....to me, the Tokico blue is at the bottom of the list for aftermarket shocks for integras.

Yes i agree, buy better shocks if you can afford it. I wish other shocks were available for me at the time of my purchase.

Am just saying tokico blues hold up ok with h&r sports.

not worth it for the ITR shocks IMO for the cash for the shocks plus the LCA's...i'd just buy something else.

i have tokico illuminas with H&R Sports. I don't know what everyone is saying...it's not spongy whatsoever. Well i have never ridden in a car equipped with Koni Yellows, but with the stiffest setting set, it's a pretty stiff *** ride. http://www.inlinefour.com <----the best place =D

First of all, keep in mind that I am no where near rich. I have had Tanabe shocks for sometime and I was looking around for good shocks. You can always use the search feature to get other peoples feedback, but basically it goes like this. The best, BEST shocks out are the Koni Yellows. They are height and rebound adjustable and are covered by a life-time guarantee. My other choice was a set of KYB AGX's, since they are less expensive than the Koni Yellows, but are adjustable as well, but only a few settings, whereas the Yellows are fully adjustable. I really didn't want to spend $500 on shocks, but I decided if I was going to upgrade, I would upgrade to the best. I ordered mine through Diabloautosports.com and received them for $504 including shipping. KYB AGX's run around $300 or so I believe, but not definite on that. Ask around and see what everyone has to say about the Koni's though. Nothing negative about them........good luck! (Damn FedEx delivered the shocks to my door today, but I wasn't home!!!!)
