Can I only use "Honda" rear Shocks on my s2000 ??

The answer really depends on why you're asking. There are any number of aftermarket options ranging from something like Koni Sports through full Bilstein coilovers. What should be avoided at all costs in my are tyre centre and type of budget type of shocks. HTH

Hi, to answer your question, no you don't have to use Honda rear shocks but in doing so will keep the car stock/standard which isn't a bad thing. However if you do want to go down the route of using Honda (showa) shocks then be prepared to pay about £350+ per rear shock unit.

I'm in the process of replacing my rear shocks due to MOT failure (leaking oil) on one of the rears. As I don't use the car that much (just over 1k miles last year) and want to keep the car as OEM as possible I opted to replace with Konis, they seem to get a decent review and are more sensibly priced.

Or find someone who has upgraded to aftermarket coilovers and buy their old ones. Beware, each model year has a different spring and damper rate, so get the same as you have currently.

I could be that man if you're after shocks from a facelift 04 car. Not new of course though, but sat in my garage doing nothing...
