Tokico HP Shock/Struts

So_Cali · 06-30-2008, 05:43 AM

So I recently lowered my car with the Eibach Pro-Kit and I've been lookin into a new set of Shocks and Struts because eventually I'm gonna need them because the stock ones weren't meant for an aftermarket spring set-up. The ride right now is not bad at all but, again the shocks/struts are gonna have to be replaced. I was looking to getting the Tokico D-Specs but, they're a little more than I'mlooking to spend and I just dont think I'm gonna need the adjustablity. So since I found a brand new set of Tokico HPs on eBay for an unbeatable price I may end up with those. Does anybody have that set-up on their car? For those that do, share your experience...Looking to order these sometime this week, Thanks!

Much improved ride over stock. I wish I could compare them to the DSpecs but I've never rode in a car with them.

So is the ride a bit more stiff than stock? It doesnt bother me right now the way it is but, it could use improvement lol

I would say stiffer is a good description. My car was never smooth but the Tokico's helped especially on the freeway.

Ya, theyre great. I've had them for about 6 months, its a little stiffer but i never bottom out with them in dips like i used to with the stock ones (bc they hold the car harder, not higher) and at 80+ mph they make a huge handing difference
