Cal and Kirby you're both probably right about KYB but some of us are budget minded . I can put on 5 sets of KYB's to a single of Koni's. Having run KYB it's infinately better than stock . But truth be known I couldn't afford Koni's before and probably won't ever. If it costs less than $200.00 for good springs why should we have to pay over $500.00 for premuim stocks/struts?

The reason that the dampers are so much more expensive:
1) This is the most technically sophisticated part of your suspension, it can and will totally transform the handling characteristics of your car. Less bumpy ride, better panic and high speed manuverability.
2) You will NEVER have to replace a good damper, you will most assuredly replace a weak one( total cost is all the shocks + all the install charges + all the hastle).
3) The same reason you bought a GT and not a cheapie PT!!
