help picking a shock

I don't want to spend any more than $300 for a set of shocks so I have it narrowed down to a few: bilstein HD, tokico, or KYB AGX. Which would be a better shock for the money? I don't want anything too stiff, but I do need something that handles well. It is for my 94z, a daily driver. Thanks.

Bilstein HD, BY FAR. Those are the least shocks that should ever be put on these cars.

Remember though, unless you are doing the install yourself, it will run you around $200 more.

Go HD's there the best I think. You got a great company/name and warranty.

Bistein HDs aren't the best, but they work very well in stock applications.
