    What performance shock options are left?

    Koni Yellows (Sport) are discontinued, leaving only the Orange (STR.T) as an option.
    Tokico is defunct (as a suspension company, anyway).
    Bilstein doesn’t seem to support the chassis at all anymore.
    KYB AGX is still available, though that was generally the worst option for a drop.

    What else is out there for the CB anymore? Aside from full coilovers, that is. There are still some decent options left there (and plenty of junk.)

    The damper options have dwindled in past few years. I think the KYB and STR.T are likely the last few that are available. It does look like Bilstein makes a damper for the 4th and 5th gen Accords, but I haven’t ever really heard of anyone running them.

      All I'm finding for Bilstein are OE-spec; you probably wouldn't want to put lowering springs on those.

      Skunk2 still makes stand-alone struts for 4th/5th-gens. I've heard good things about their higher-tier coilovers, but I'm guessing their "Sport Shocks" are of their less reputable quality offerings that people are always ragging on.

      If I didn't have a wagon that suffers from rear-end sag with the available lowering spring options, it'd be worth trying out the Skunk2s just to see for myself where they stand these days, combined with probably Tein S-techs. I did like the ride height those springs gave my old sedan. I'm eyeing Fortune Autos, though, since they can do custom rates to handle more weight in the back.
