I replaced my Mazda RX8s struts with kyb gas-a-just shocks and really like them! For a rwd sports car that I occasionally autocross they haven’t let me down!
Reviews of KYB parts For Business

Yo compre KYB para un CRV y despues de 40k kilometros siento que tome la mejor decision.
KYBs were good improvement over stock for my shit box long ago.
I've bought Gas-a-Justs on closeouts with no regrets.
I run kyb with tein springs on both of my spyders and they've been great
I used them on my ep81 starlet. Theyre fine. Think of them like oem struts, if not higher quality.
I put those on a 2011. They are slightly stiff but super easy to drop in both front and rear. Really great on the highway but a little harder than I would like on local streets with pot holes.
I've used them before a couple of times. They're decent for the price just don't expect high end performance valving in them. If all you do is daily drive it to work and back home and do your shopping in it. They are 100% fine and perfect for that if you wanted more of a GT car.
Although KYB makes very good bare struts, The preassembled KYB strut plus assemblies are straight up garbage. The strut top mounts and springs that KYB uses are absolutely trash and generally fail extremely quickly, if they aren't just failed right out of the box.
I would stay away from their strut mounts with the bearings. Mine were garbage and clunking over bumps right out of the box. I had to replace them with Monroes since I didn't feel like renting the spring compressor to deal with it
