Did you mean to say Tokico Blues? Because those are OEM replacements, and also because Skunk2's sport shocks are meant to work with their standard lowering springs...and their EF rates are 559/485, significantly stiffer than stock.

im just curious as to why they only sell the rear koni str-t shocks and not the front ones for the 88-91 civic...seems they have them listed as part (8050-1045) but they aren't available for purchase not even from the koni website...they only sell the rears which are (8050-1012)...!!!

I know I cant find a full set at all? But now I am stuck again. B/c if I get the skunk2 I gotta get dif control arms. I dunno what I should do. I might just by two front of something for now and then rears at a later time. I dunno what this guys talking about a set of str.t's b/c I cannot find a set for my life.

call koni tech support, that's seriously weird that they would make half a car. is there another app that fits? for example they don't list any for the acura cl but the accord shocks are a direct fit

i find it weird also because if they would of sold the complete set then i probably would of picked them up from www.tirerack.com since they have them listed at $58 each...my application is specifically for my 91 civic lx and don't want the koni yellows but was curious about them str-t shocks...!!!

racebum

the str.t is basically a yellow set just a bit above soft according to the guys at koni. at 58 each that's a steal. see what they say when you call tomorrow

Just wondering how long they have lasted you with it dropped and how low? Don't have time to look thru 40 something pages bro.

where did u get the koni yellows at?

the Tokiko HP's hare been working fine for me, I use them for everyday driving. I use them with Eibach pro kit springs and its a dream on the road!

racebum

your stock shocks would give you the same result

I have Tokico Blues on my EF Hatch with 700lb springs, with the front coil sleeves shaved down a half inch, and on one spring seat still on, and in the rear it's just the coil spring.. It's super low and rides great. Awesome corner machine, really stuff when you need it, but not to stuff once you get used to it. Or if it's not your DD I'm sure you could love with it the few times you drive it

Skunk2 sport shocks. They work great when used with drop springs. They also work pretty ok with most off the shelf sleeve-type coilovers.

Personally speaking, the Koni Str.t is a great entry level shock for the price. I have mine w/ the eibach pro kit and it's just right for my dd. Polyurethane bushings and spring isolators make all the difference too.

Have you considered a different hobby? Or at least a different car... $400 seems outrageous to you but so does asking for trustworthy suspension for $100 a corner. Please just stop doing what you are doing all together.

Also, **** you for bumping this old thread up and me replying to it without looking at the OP date.
