I have procured a set of Skunk2 coilovers, for 50 dollars :) from a friend whose Civic was stolen :( Here is my question. I would like to get a good set of shocks to go along with these coilovers. I don't mind stiff handling, but I don't want to lose my fillings over every bump. I was thinking maybe a set of Koni Reds. Are these a good match for the coilovers, the price seems pretty good, and I don't think I need adjustable, just something that will handle well and be comfortable over the bumps. Any suggestions?

Also, any Thermal RD exhaust users out there who have used the Stealth and Classic systems? I have the classic and am thinking of converting to stealth since to me it's too loud for everyday driving on my mildly moded civic. Does it keep its nice tone, but a little quieter? Please help. Thanks all.

Koni yellows, KYB AGX, tokico illuminas...........

I have the classic thermal on my civic and the 3 inch thermal on my teg. I like both of them. no plans to switch to stealth....

I had the koni reds in my '93 hatch, they were a little stiff but I liked them. My friend has the reds in his '00 coupe and it rides nice. I'd go with the reds. Good Luck
