17965, tokico suspension kit
Posted by safedawg, May-25-03 06:35 AM
I was wondering if anyone had the tokico suspension kit and how it is, or will I be better of getting pro kits with some illuminas

I've heard nothing but good things about it...if i were you though i would go w/the pro kits and illuminas over the tokico springs and illuminas or blues

pro kits have a great rep around here but in my opinion are to soft for a real performance gain. if you're doing this for looks than either way would be acceptable. if you want performance you'd be better off with the H&R's even though they're firm.

i have tokico blues with the tokico springs. its rides great, the only negative to it is that it only dropped my car 1-1.1 inches where it was advertised as a 1.5 drop.

I have it too. I like it a lot, but I don't have experience with any other combo so I won't say its better then another set up. But I like it IMO!

I have tokico's illumina 5 way adjustable advanced handling kit. it is 4 springs and 4 shocks. I like them alot, they handle great. My reasoning was that since tokico made the shocks, they know what the perfect spring rate to use for them, so the set will be much more tuned to each other than purchasing springs and shocks from different manufacturers.

Nothing bad to say about the suspension kit at all. Combined with RMSDM sway bars, it holds the road like no tomorrow.

What about the Tokico strut/spring combo's on ebay. Ive seen a kit for blues plus tokico springs for $385 shipped, and Illuminas and tokico springs for $500 shipped. Are the Illuminas really worth the extra money?

i gots the blues and h&r's. i like it, although the spring didn't quite fiton the strut, i had to drive it a lil, then it poped on. not very bouncey either, if i go over a big bumb, it will bounce like 1.5 times the instantly even out. cool, before my others were shot, i bounced like crazy.
