      KYB makes a good budget replacement shock. Made a big difference on my car over the stock decarbons, but ultimately i want a set of adjustables.
      How does it ride Joel? I absolutely hate these Konis. It is embarrasing to have iother people ride in my car because it is so harsh. I'm tempted to replace them when I put the Stranos on.

        Theyre on the stiffer side but not too stiff. Much more functional than the decarbons but its not like i have anything really good to compare them to either. Ive only got them in the rear, you can tell the back of the car is alot better than the front.

                    thanks for the input guys. really would like to go with qa1s but a bit high in price right now. was leaning more toward something adjustable just so i have an option on the feel of the ride and stiffness for track use. ill have to check on the stranno package though. i keep seeing these being used on fourth gens lately in the mags. i just figured id get some opinions from you all on here that have tried different brands and what not. again thanks for the input

                      I had no interest in a full drag car/setup so I chose to go with strano springs and koni shocks

                        Theve probably fixxed it by now, but autozone had the elelbrock coilovers for the front for $170, thing was they screwed up the Ad and listed it as a pair for $170. I *****ed and got both for the price of one, they ride real nice too.
                        The Chevy Camaro was built with a single purpose in mind which it executes flawlessly...Going very very fast in a straight line until your hair catches on fire.
