Hmm...so I don't love Monroe shocks...

Thanks for that info 72blu & nm9. Just what a needed to hear.
I'm still on the fence on upgrading my ride (daily street use only) with the 1" JS bars, Hellwig swaybar and KYB's in the front and Monroe Sensatracs (w/ helperspring) in the rear with 7 blade springpacks.

I have no complaints about the rear of the car yet, but on the front I would like to see some improvement.
It's either upgrading (again) from 1" to 1.06/1.10" orso tbars, or upgrade the shocks, both of which are costly upgrade. I'm thinking I want better shocks first, given the variety of different roadsurfaces I encounter everyday.

What I think I dislike about my current setup is the too harsh/ sudden 'quick' shock motion (speedbumps & potholes), and not enough damping with 'long/slow' shock motions.
I also feel there's not enough rebound dampening in the front shocks as noticed on speedbumps where the nose of the car raises quite a bit after the first 'jolt' of the onramp of a speedbump.
