    If you don't want to lower the car, then you have zero aftermarket options. Shocks alone should help you out though. Monroes are a good cheap stock replacement. Nothing special as far as performance or anything, but a good cheap shock.

      would lowering the car make for an even harsher ride? thats why i dont want to lower it and also i have a body kit on the car so im already low enough. The springs are original - no need to change? I guess im looking for some really good comftorable shocks then.

          ok i gettin stock spring replacements as mine have 140k on them - for shocks i was going bilsteins but i can only find a set of rear's an not front, i would like to have the same line of shocks all the way around.

          -can someone point out front bilstiens? cant find them anywhere even from summit

          -my other options seem like KYB AGX's - KYB GR-2's,

          anythoughts? I think im gona be spending a good amount of coin on my suspension in the next 2 months or so. 3pt SFC'c, STB, new shocks and spring, LCA's, control arms, etc.

          Im starting with the shcoks and springs as i have a dead rear shock and my ride quality ios so bad. I really want bilsteins but cant find fronts

              Search recent threads mentioning bilsteins. In a nut shell, they have been on backorder for forever, the last few shipments they had out were bad, and Sam Strano is not recommending bilstein at all anymore.

              KYB AGX is your best choice for a lowered car, or for a stock ride height car, for lower priced (I wouldn't say cheap) shocks.
