I have a set of Skunk2 coilovers for my 95 Civic that I really want to install soon, but I think I'm going to get some new shocks first and put them on at the same time. The things is I can't decide on which shocks to get. I'm looking for good performance without being overly expensive. Any recommendations? Konis and Bilsteins look nice...

thats good that your gonna at least wait and do it all at once, it just saves to do it at once rather than be charged labor twice or do it yoursefl twice. I had tokico shocks on mine and a buddy had kyb on his integra. As far as price the tokico (non adj) ones gor for about 65-75 a shock and the kyb (non adj) go for about 55-69 each. Good luck with your shocks.

they're pretty expensive, but i can't imagine not having them. they run somewhere around $150 each.

Are the koni 12 way adjustable or 6 way?? Thats a pretty penny for each shock, thats more than the tokico adjustables.

i believe the koni yellows are three way adjustable for firmness. but it's for the rebound stroke only. yes, they are expensive, but i've found them to be the better than the rest, unless you're going for a full coilover system.
