im looking at 450$ max and i was thinking of either KYB or TOKICO, Koni's are too much cheese, and i dont know about the different Bilstiens.

 

Go with the SLP spec bilstiens, there tried and true. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

 

The SLP bilstiens are a little "softer" on the valving then the regular Bilstiens and seem to be a good street shock but a little soft for aggressive use. The tokico adjustable shocks are a great shock in the bang for the buck department (go to www.ground-control.com and they give some opinions of each of the shocks they carry with the listings)...they seem to work well on the street and many guys have had limited success on track days and some racing events with them. They're not Koni's....but they are pretty good. Good Luck.

 

Anyone got any opinions on the KYB's??? are they more agressive than the SLP Bilstiens?

 

I got a full set of bilsteins heavy duty shocks for $300 shipped from www.bimmerparts.com, they're more aggressive then SLP spec ones

 

QTP sells Comp Engineering 3 way adj shocks for $46 each. Fronts and rears. I don't think anyone has used them, I posted a message a few days back asking about them and no one had any response.

 

I was wondering about the KYB's too....anyone with info ?

 

The consensus at a few other boards are that the KYBs suck, I don't personally know, it's just what I've read.
