    Was out swapping wheels around today and seen my driver side rear shock was shot (look like it was leaking oil?) on my 4 banger. So the question is should i do some nice KYB's or something? I want it to handle to a point and have other supporting mods on it to go with it. (yes i said supporting mods on a 4 bangerLOL) peace

    I have Koni's and love them!

    KYB's ehh idk. I really dont like them just because I had a car that had them and they rode like crap but it was lowered about an inch.:shrug: Maybe thats why

    Tokico, Koni, Bilstien, Tokico Illuminas are the only shocks I would reccomend for that low of a car. Tokico Illumina and the yellow Konis will be the best combo of good ride and handling for a good price. The Bilstiens a better unit but is a bit more expensive too.
