it depends on how ur current shocks are right now. if they arnt bad, u wont really need new ones. u can use new oem ones which will be better but for a little more money u can get some decent performance shocks which will make ur car ride/handle better with the springs.

if u just want something cheap but better than oem, i'd recommend the Tokico HP's. xshocks has some of the cheapest prices and free shipping. the shocks are $254 shipped for '92-'00 models. stiffer than stock but still offer a nice ride for daily driving. where i got my Tokico HP setup.
