they are only monroe shocks painted red. with a steep price increase. go buy the monroes they are cheaper and the same product.

I got Pedders Sports rider suspension Springs and shocks ATM, had them since March. I don't like them they are squeaky and bouncy.
Thinking of Buddy Club N+ in the not too distant future, hope they should be alot better.

i also got a quote for kyb shocks from australia best 900 fitted. I have pedders lowered springs on there atm. Im thinking of changing the springs too. Im looking at lovels or whiteline. Not sure which ones. All i know is that i need to change shocks and I want something worth the money.

any muffler/suspension shop MAY also provide shocks. best way is to go into yellowpages and type "springs" or "shocks" within your city. but u can also buy direct from

KYB:
http://kyb.com.au/

BuddyClub:
http://www.buddyclub.com.au/

or u could try www.motors.ebay.com and search for shocks in US eBay. But unless you have traded in ebay before and have bought from US before, then I wouldnt recommend it. i've also heard that TOKICO shocks are good. I heard from somewhere in this forum that they have a retailer in Melb, but didnt say where. I tried to google, but no-go.

Look at tokico illuminas, kyb agx, and koni yellows. (i got my koni's from the US for $690 which is a killer price, ask where if your interested)

Eibach, tein, h&r, whiteline all make nice springs. King springs sag excessivly (there obviously not shot peened), and ive never heard anything good reguarding pedders products.

I believe both kyb, and tokico have quite a few different shocks in their range, but if its between tokico illuminas and kyb AGX, apparantly the illuminas are a bit harsher and more suited to higher spring rates. The AGXs will suit off the shelf spring rates better. However for the prices youve been quoted, id say there most likly lesser models.

Ive never used either of these products, but this is what i found from my own research into which shocks to run. Best bet is to go on honda-tech.com and search for the various shocks your interested in, youll find plenty of experiances and comparisons.

thanx for that muzz. I more then likely ask for the kyb shocks at the allsprings they should be able to get a better price then other places would. I'll ask and let you guys know the price i got.
