shocks & struts I have 130K miles on my Z. I am planning to replace the shocks & struts for the first time. This is a daily driver but I wouldn't mind firming the ride a bit. I was looking at KYB Gas-a-Justs. Any experiences whth them. Any recomendations? Also, should I plan top replace the strut mounts at the same time?

Agree with TransWSAm just shocks on 4th gens!!!! It depends on your budget for around 380 bucks you can get bilstiens which are very good. they are def better than KYB!!! if not on a budget go with Koni for around 800 bucks but get with Sam Strano for more info.

Are they going to be a lot different to replace than struts?
It looks like it has an upper ball joint rather than rotating on the top strut mount. Looks like a better design.
