Shocks/Struts
Okay so my car bumps around like a crazy bull so I need new shocks/struts all the way around. My question is what are you guys running?? Stock replacements are $130 each, I called Steeda and it seems like they have everything under the sun. I dont want to spend alot of money but I know I shouldnt skimp, So far I priced Tokiko aluminum adjustables (about $250 each) the stock ones, and KYB GR2S ($100 each). I had GR2's in my other car and I liked them so im inclined to pick up some of them up. I plan on taking my car to the track probally 2 - 3 times a summer and I might try some auto X depending on how things go.
I plan on getting springs at the same time or very shortly after

Total in CDN came out to $550 with tax. I had them shipped to my aunt's in Michigan and I popped over and got them with a few other parts.

Nope none at all. Came in sealed boxes and got there within the week I ordered.
Not sure if you have a US shipping address but that's how I did it... no idea how it would be when shipping to Canada. Although all the fees will still be cheaper than buying here.

When ordering parts from the US - I see if the vendor will ship by UPS to a UPS store close to my border crossing. The UPS store will hold it for 2 weeks. I drive across, pay $5 to the UPS store - and pick them up. So - as long as you're close to the border - that's an option that may work for a lot of US orders.
