cost of tokico's?
cost of new KYB's?

prime example for everyone else that is hesitant to spend the money on Koni's. do it once and do it right the first time. this person will end up spending more then the Koni's would have been and still ends up with something not even nearly as good.

true, but not everybody has that kind of money up front!! I lucked out cuz i got my KYB shocks for free. Didnt look like the best condition, but hell, i threw it on and im happy. my car drives great. I have no clue why people are bottoming it out?

if i were to go on a cheap route for shocks/struts i would check the used parts section.

as to why i mentioned im not rich, transmission is more important, and it seems stupid that out of the many types of shocks there is only one that keep them from bottoming out? that SUCKS. thanks for the review on the kyb's everybody...
