damn, i have prokits and i'm going to go with KYB. I was king of confused but ya'll made things pretty clear to me. I went to a local performance shop and they swore that it was difficult to find HP shocks. He was like that kyb only made fronts and that i had to get some koni's for the back and then cut them to make them fit, then he wanted to tell me that it was gonna cost me 750 for shocks alone. I looked at him like he was nuts!!! Damn stupid perfomance shop.

I ordered my KYB's off of www.tirerack.com and received them in like 2 days. If you have an 03 and want to order from them, you'll have to look it up under 01-02. They won't show up for the 03s.

I've found a few Shock Dyno of the vairious brands out there, and from what I've seen it appears that the Tokico would be the more comfortable damper (Tokicos are known to be on the soft side of performance dampers) THe KYB AGX is known to have stiffer bump valving then both Konis and Tokicos, so ride quality it would be the roughest. But any way, Over on EPhatch there's a whole thread on this....
