    Default Shocks

    I am looking for some shocks for my car(94 Integra), I am specifically looking for some Koni Red's. I already have the rear shocks so I only need the fronts. The cheapest price I found so far for these is $163 shipped to my door.

    Does anyone know where I can find cheaper Koni shocks?

    Yeah, the guy I bought the car from had put coilovers on with the stock shocks. I got the rear Koni's off a local car forum for a great deal, now I need the fronts.

    honestly if it were me id replace all 4 at once, even wear and all that

    but as for good prices, the merchants on HondaTech always have killer deals on parts for us Hondas........ especially you Civic and Integra guys..... I only keep an account there for the parts discounts to be honest , not too many places that sell Accord parts anyways






    YAY, 1st post in...... well...... god knows how long

    I had been wondering what happened to you.

    I have the rear shocks right now, and I need the fronts. I looked on team integra, but all I found were the yellows.

    I resent the fact that you bunch the integras with the civics. Just last night I whopped a kid in the same year civic with pretty much the same mods I have, plus my car was full of people and stereo crap.

    wel in terms of just aftermarket support I HAVE to bunch the Civics and the Integras......... here in the USDM anyways, if I was in the JDM I could be swimming in Accord parts...... and my Accord would also have an H22A

    but yeah, fact remains that you and them civic dudes have billions of aftermarket options, mass produced and dirt cheap...... OK maybe not, but you get the point


    and now that I look at my post logs its only been like 3 weeks........ oh well, after my X50 got sold I just didnt really seem to float back here so naturally anymore...........

    No more X50? Are you still running an RD? Last I heard you had moved to the V1 side.

    Oh and to take a page from the DSM guys.

    Fast, Reliable, Cheap. Pick two.

    Even with Hondas, its best to go with the name brand stuff.

    I was leaning towards a V1, but in the end ive chosen to try absinence, and it seems to be working, I mean 5 over (and 10 over in the highways) seems to be good enough for me... for now :roll:



    and another thing I gotta say, as one Honda man to another

    Without a Turbo, Hondas are stuck racing other Hondas for the rest of their lives :wink:

    but you agree with me in that a real contest is in the corners, in which case a Honda is a great base to start on.......... Koni reds are good, but if you ever get serious, yellows are the way to go........ aside from full coilovers that is...... im leaning towards getting me some Tein SS personally
