the OEM shock is made by KYB i think but branded as a toyota. the one in the Tanabe pic is on stock shocks.

No sport feel for me...had enough of that in my 1993 Prelude Vtec (I know, you are in awe...) with ground control and illuminas...my back was sore all the time. Low and smooth...

Stock. No problems other than worn bushings - with new bushings and a stiffer rear swaybar, I'd be stylin'.
