I only replace shocks and struts with Billstein. You pay for what you get these days and I’ve replaced OE struts only to find out the leaking OE struts performed better than Monroe or KYB’s.
Tuned by STI. Often shortened to TBSTI. Was never available in North America. You get some exterior bits including wheels, Brembo brakes, STI 6 speed, Bilstein struts & other suspension improvements, some interior bits (namely seats), strut tower brace, different mufflers, and of course the ECU tune.
I've been on B4s for two years on my 2nd gen. Granted they're on springs that sit almost an inch lower than OE height, but performance is solid and consistent all the same. Id imagine they're even more plush at OE height versus that small amount of preload from sitting slightly lower. Worth the money.
Black if you want original ride quality. Yellow if you want a stiffer ride but with better quality damping and you’re not price sensitive.
My yellow billys are awesome
Part brand reccomendations also welcome... looking at ACDelco for sway bar links and ball joints, Delphi for control arm bushings, Monroe quick struts. Mevotech any good for Hondas??
Monroe quick struts... All four corners fully assembled for 67 off Amazon.
Bilstein is low quality
I replaced both front struts with Bilstein B4s EDC. I gained about an inch from stock ride height.
stay away from monroe.
