I'm Down Right Fierce!
KYB GR2 are actually not bad. I've driven an 01 Prelude with KYB + Tein S tech, and they feel better than OEM.
For the price I'd say they're a good buy. (I don't know how much OEM shocks cost, but if I were looking for OEM replacements, I'd get the KYB's over OEM.)
I'm in the market for aftermarket shocks and springs too.
Looking at Tokico Blues and Tein H Tech right now. But yah, the price of KYB is super tempting.

aznbeayst,
I just ordered a new set of KYB GR2's to replace my OEM shocks. After talking with a few friends, I decided to go with basic shock replacements instead of getting "sports car type" shocks. Friends convinced me that although a TL-S is sporty, it will never handle the same as a true sports car.
I also got a great deal on a set of Tanabe Sustec NF210 springs. I plan to put up a full post reviewing the products with pictures of products and installation.
I live close to Mr.Heeltoes shop, so I'll most likely get them installed there.
Stay tuned; they should be in by the end of this month or early April.

Where were you able to get all four for $180? Could you PM me the source?
So far the cheapest I found is tire rack for $240. That's without shipping.
Let me know! Thanks
