OK.. Well I'm replacing some of the components of my front suspension, and I noticed one of my shocks is bleeding. I only know about the major brands: KYB, Koni, Bilstein, Tokiko, Monroe... I like the Koni but they are too pricy. I don't think Bilstein or Tokiko make them for Fiero, And I'm thinking that the Monroe may not be as high perf. as the KYB. So, I'm thinking KYB may be the way to go as of right now... Any expieriences with these or any other recommndations I can look into???

Is the rest of your suspension stock? I have the KYBs with Eibachs and full Poly. The ride's a little harsh but I had to spray the drivers side window with Pam to make it easier to peel my cheek off the glass in right hand turns. I can't wait to get some race rubber!!

KYB's are excellent unless you want to be able to adjust the suspesnion. KONI makes adjustable's these are nice but more $$$. KYB's work excellent with the stock suspension.

Roger, I'm curious as to which Bilsteins you used up front. And also how much they cost you. I looked on the site and didn't come across them...
