    Looking for a good performance shock that fits in the standard ae86 strut. Does koni or bilstein make them?

    KYB, TRD or Bilstein i recommend

    3 decent shocks for the money from KYB $450 set, TRD Blues $1150 set up to Bilsteins $1500+ set.

    With shocks you really get what you pay for.

    Speak to dave from AJPS,he'll sort you out

    Adjustability on the TRD blues, they do bump and rebound at the same time.

    Then again the Bilsteins arent adjustable because they are adaptive and they are stiff as for stiff springs in the first place.
