KYB shocks

I've heard good things about the tokiko shocks, but not much about KYB's. There's a few sets of KYB GR-2 shocks for the first gen on ebay and was wondering if these are a comparible product to tokiko?

I'm not looking for adjustibility, but some improved performance with some racing beat springs. Would these be appropirate shocks?

KYB are good for the money but don't last long if your car is heavily lowered. My last set of fronts were fucked in under 10,000km
