ebay but 185 for all four seems decent to me
i dont wanna spend more than 300 on my suspension not looking to slam it or even coilovers just want a stiffer ride and my rear struts are shot
any one with these shocks/struts?
thanks in advance

yeah i had chepo coiovers before and they worked great for me i mean i blew my stock struts but the coiovers were great
oem replacement struts are like 170 so i figure 185 cant be that bad

I Agree with not going cheap on your suspension. You will have to end up redoing stuff later down the road.
i have never heard of NOX before. I found KYB Gas Struts for $150 for the front two, and $150 for the rear 2. That would be $300 for Front and Back.
KYB Gas Struts are good quality struts, Combined with $50 Random Ebay coils they have a decent ride and handle awesomely. I have had many friends use this setup as its cheap and it serve's them Well.

Thats a Damn good deal on Tokico Blue Struts. Combine those and ebay coils and you will have an awesome riding car you can adjust to be how high/low you want it.
Ride Quality will be top Notch, Slighty rougher then OEM however it will handling amazingly.

Yea tokicos are the best (IMO) for a cheap price strut.
Do the 2.5, do it, do it.
