Unfortunately, there aren't any known replacement shocks for the Kizashi other than KYBs. The OE shocks are made by them. The only alternative I know of are expensive KW coilovers that cost thousands and are only available in Europe.

I am from the Netherlands and bought thrm from japanparts. I knew about the kybs but i had to order them from outside my country. Through the dutch shops where i nornally order i find japanparts shocks for same price or less. I think 28 euro each which is cheap. I got them few weeks ago.. Still need to replace. I will search for a link.

Will they ship internationally? Those are definitely cheap for real oe parts.

They probably will but they are aftermarket but just like the OE. I recently fitted them together with rear brakepads and i am happy with them. Also new frontbulb.. Luckly it was the passengers side so i didnt need to remove the bumper.

Ah, aftermarket. If I was going that route, I'd go KW. :D

Yeah, I just replace the passenger headlight myself--all the other bulbs were dead and too hard to reach! :facepalm:
