Koni vs KYB
 
I have a 2002 Honda Civic LX 2 door, 1.7 L, non-VTEC with 96000 km and the front struts are done. I decided on 2 types of Struts, Koni SP's # 8641-1414sp (55mm body) at $390/pair or KYB GR2 at $320/pair. Does anyone have any prefering, I just want a good stock replacement part. Please keep in mind that I'm not lowering my car or anything.

Thanks guys

Danny

Well first of all, at $320 a pair for GR2's, you're getting ripped off soooo bad... not sure about the Konis, but for an almost OEM replacement strut, that's waaayyyy too much. You should be looking at less than half that.

Yeah. That sounds a little more like it (if installation is included). But he's looking at $320 A PAIR... that's why I was a little shocked.

Thanks for the update guys. But the price is in Canadian dollors that's why it's so high. Maybe I should take a trip down and purchase a set. The only problem is I may have to pay dutie's on the product when I come accross the border.

Anyway have a good day.
