    that sounds like them. you could also try WW shock absorbers in Matheson St Geebung/Virginia, next to where import bitz used to be.

    FYI over the years I have tried in my AE86, Koni Yellows, TRD Green, TRD Yellow, TRD blues(currently fitted), Potenza's and a few others I forget.

    Yellow front 48511-AE941 and Blue rear 48531-AE831 I think are best value for money.

    I am running 48511-AE031 Blues in front(on setting 3!!), if they ever leak I'm just going to get yellow fronts again.

    Disliked the Koni's and the greens.

    well list is about 15,500 yen so you'd expect it to cost 350-400 landed at the moment.

    a lot for a fixed shock, albeit a good one.

    I think I may have one second hand one in working order. I'll check tomorrow.
