Default QA 1/HAL shocks question

I've been looking over a couple different shocks and there is a big price difference between the QA1 Proma Star and QA1 Aluma Matic, but I can see the benefit of one over the other.

The Aluma Matic seems to advertise it's better street manners and ride comfort and the Proma Star advertises it's drag strip design.

Both are adjustable and seem to be pretty even in their design and materials. Anyone have experience with either of these shocks?

And yes, I'm going for a coil-over set-up on my '93. :thumbs:

TIA

Nevermind, I found the difference. The Aluma is non-adjustable while the Proma has 12 settings.
