My DA9 Integra had Tanabe coilovers which were ok for street driving but nothing compared to a true race shock like I have now.

U can never compare Tanabe with Bilstein. Bilstein is very well known in race series around the world. While a lot of people don't know what the heck Tanabe is if they drive an European or Domestic car.

I looked into DMS & Bilstein but unfortunately nothing available at the moment?

That's not what I was trying to say. I was trying to express how much I liked having a true competition shock as opposed to a shock meant for the street driving market. This is my first non-street shock. Although I have ridden in many cars with other competition setups, this is the first that is mine.
