Infos on struts

[Phoenix]

I'm looking to replace all the struts on the sho. Note that the front coil will be cut (OEM coil) and rear are new Moog cargo coils (uncut). And I'm no fan of really harsh cornering.

KYB = Say a set on ebay for 170$ , Why everyone say that they are no good?


Sensa tracs = 40$ each on rockauto , Are these good?

Konis = Where to buy? price tag? what to expect from these?

Tokicos = Where to buy? price tag? what to expect from these? Are they really discontinued?

Thanks for any inputs.

KYB's=Crap
Monroe=Better than KYB's; good stock replacement (and good combo with MOOG springs)
Konis= The *******
Tokicos= Gone (you may be able to find some used ones, but they are discontiuned. Im not totally sure on this, but, I heard tokico was making replacments inserts....

Konis are the best strut for the SHO. We do offer pre cut struts.

Tockicos you cant find.

Same on the rest.

We sell most of the parts: SHOBros

Yea I just saw the Konis price. **EDIT** (The price is high globally , did not want to take down shobros)

The big $ is going in the motor. Not the susp. If I want to cut corners @ 100 mph , I'll just buy a dropped civic.

Anyone had experience with Gabriel struts?

KYBs ran fine for my setup and I know at least two other SHO owners in Michigan who ran them fine as well.

Don't cut the coil, go with a lowering spring.
