Need shock recommendations...

I'm looking for some good shocks to replace the factory ones that I have. It's a daily driver and the car sees very little track time. Price is also an issue so I'm not looking for the best money can buy. Any advice you can give is always greatly appreciated.

I'm sure this subject has been beaten to death but I tried a few searches and have not turned up any info.

Summit has KYB's for $30, suppose to be a good shock. I put a set on mine but haven't got the car back on the road yet so i don't know about ride yet.

I just put some Gabriels on mine from Autozone. I could not believe the difference in the ride after I put them on. I vote for Gabriels for being a very good cheap shock.
