need some new shocks, lowered my car bout 3 months ago and cant stand the bumpyness. I know koni are the best and i've read all the threads on konis vs kyb on celica.net. konis give better handling then kybs, but as far as ride comfort is involved with my current stock shocks and lowered suspension am I going to notice much difference with kyb vs konis? I imagine the ony difference would be handling characteristics while driving aggressivly. Any input?

well the konis are adjustable....so you can make them ride softer or harder... >

suspension work always means more bumps. koni's ride great, but they ride hard at the bottom setting and extremely hard at the top setting. now, koni's were really designed with autocross/track racing in mind, so if you turn them up and get on a good road, man, it's amazing. but bad roads suck baaaaaaaad. i'd go with KYBs, they will doubtless be more forgiving.

Is there any other good shock besides Koni, I want a good warranty, but I don't feel like paying out the ass for these shocks, and is there anywhere that I can get the for a decent price? please point me to a good site.
Homemade shock are good. There are also very cheap.
There have KYB and others. If not, just get a good coilover set from Tein.
There was a BZ Touring where I live that had Tein HA shock.
The guy told me that there work very great.
The roads here are failry bad in some area.
So when he told me about that, I was amaze to how my car fell with Toyota lowering springs
We both have the same BZ Touring 4AGE 20v Black TOP rate over 180hp+
