The reason some people dont like them is because the front shocks are inserts, that means they are placed inside the stock shock body...mine ride fine and are adjustable to whatever kind of ride you want. ive had them on for about 2 years now and no problems what so ever

I paid about $500 for front and rear shocks, id suggest you get all four not just the fronts, especially if your lowered at all

Re: Honda shocks...hard to find..

what the fuck are you talking about? what do these look like?

Koni Yellow
KYB Gr-2
KYB AGX
Tokico Blues (HP)
Tokico D Spec
Mouton (but these are mad expensive)
Spoon (but these are mad expensive)

1) Koni yellows - The front struts need to be modified for them to fit. There are a few different sizes (50mm or 55mm). These are probably your best bet for autocrossing or road racing if you don't have full coils.

2) KYB Gr-2 - These are not performance shocks. While they are better than OEM they usually can't handle a very low drop. They will improve rdie and handling, but arn't meant to be slammed on. They are non-adjustable.

3) KYB AGX - Adjustable shocks good for lowering and some racing. While konis might be better, these are a good alternative.

4) Tokico Blues (HP) - These are decent shocks. They are non-adjustable. They are probably better than the Gr-2s, but usually can't handle very low drops.

5) Tokico D-Specs - 16 way adjustable shocks. These are probably very close to koni's in terms of performance, but very few people have them just yet.

who the fuck said that. koni yellow are great shocks, i believe best you can get unless you want to spend 1k on real coilovers. go learn something before you open your mouth

Pink02Civic 09-22-2004 07:50 AM

Re: Honda shocks...hard to find..

Christ, if someone can't do something with all the goddamn info people have given in this thread, they need to rethink their hobby.
