I need shocks..HELP!
This probably the best way to find the Best shocks...for my 01 civic coupe
Wut shocks and shocks alone (don't say tein SS cuz i'll only get it if imma do some real racing) are legitamite for mai civic. Something where you don't have problems w/the struts breaking etc...Are kyb AGX adjustables a good set to get? I hear koni's break a lot?
Any other ones?

Dont get the SS if you plan on doing Real racing, they are designed for the street!!! Hence the name "Super Street". there are other dampiner sets that are much better suited for racing.

Rep Power: 381 The rear perch for the spring has had some problems. it may be a case of abuse by the user though (Excessive weight in the rear possibly). Koni has allways replaced the part when ever its been reported. And I've only heard it happening to a hand full of people, so I cant really say that it happens "Allways". Koni at this point may have solved the problem. If your not comfortable with them, then the only alternitive at this point is to go with a Full replacement (Spring/Dampiner) suspension, like the Tein SS or B&G, maybe even KW's Type II (A bit higher spring rate). Any of those could be used comfortably on the street as none are Race suspensions, Just "Sport" suspensions.

ccwash told you. Konis are all there is. Either those or full coilovers. Other than that, you're pretty much ****ed.
