Shock absorbers KONI or GABRIEL

I'm running the adjustable koni yellows on mine with the eibach lowering springs (1in drop in front, 1.25 in the rear I believe).

I went with Koni yellow adjustables front and rear.

When I lowered my Integra over 20 years ago, I knew I wanted quality stuff that would hold up, i.e. not lowering springs on stock shocks. I saved up and went with Koni Sport yellow adjustable shocks along with H&R Sport springs. Those shocks lasted me nearly 20 years and over 250k miles until I just replaced them with another set a couple years ago.

If it's your daily and you're looking to spend under $1k you'll want lowering springs and shocks, something like h&r sports with Koni str/orange or sport/yellows. That'll give you a good drop with a compliant ride for the street.

So first thing I ordered was a set of Koni sport shocks and struts. These were on sale for BF at $612 at Koni online store. When I drove the car home after it was unloaded I was glad I already had the shocks and struts as the steering was super light and twitchy, car did not know where it was going. After install the car was transformed, the Konis tightened up the steering and feel, car stays flat in the curves and feels more like a Porsche.

My independent shop installed Koni and they work well and adjust to the road conditions.

I had the pro-kit with Koni sports on a MKVI GTI and it was fantastic. Also had Koni Sports and Neuspeed springs on a MK3 Jetta way back in the day. Also fantastic.

Koni yellows and your choice of spring. I run h&r sports and it’s still very daily friendly and comfortable, but is sporty enough to throw into corners with no hesitation.

Had one, an 850 Turbo wagon. Even with fancy Koni FSD shocks added, the thing still rode like a garbage truck and spirited cornering was a myth.. and still I loved that damn wagon.

I did koni str.t shocks and struts and H&R super sport lowering springs and it was cheaper than coilovers but I honestly regret just not getting some bc br coilovers
