Money is tight right now! When i got the car it had Coil overs but the thing is that my shocks are bad. i tried to find the brand of my coils but could not.. i think its some gay no brand pos. if i get brand name shocks would it fix the bouncing problem that my car has? would any shock fit to any coil over? and what kind of shock should i get that wont give me this problem.. thanks u

If you still have stock shocks, I think you should get aftermarket shocks for the comfort and better performance.

Koni sports or Bilstein sports. Certainly stay away from Kyb Gr-2's.

Well... check. And if they are no names, replace them unless you are very happy with their performance. And it's doubtful they will fit Koni shocks, usually Koni's have larger outer DI's than other shocks.

Koni Yellow would be your best choice.

for certain shocks you need like an adaptor. I need to buy a separate adaptor from Koni in order to get my Koni Yellows to fit my Ground Controls.

I want to get soem Ground Controls from http://www.wholesalehyperformance.com/coils.html . Which kind will be able to fit over my stock shocks for my kind of car. I intend to get new shocks, probably Tokico later, but I only have the money for the Ground Controls at this moment.
