Yea i here you completely and intend to buy Tokicos later on down the road but the bottom line is i need to get my car moving again. And once i save up that money i'll have a nice little setup with the Eibach pro kit and maybe some Tokico blues. The way i see it right now is that i lasted on Ractive coilovers for about 8 months before i blew a shock, and i've got 2 brand new ones. So i think the Eibachs should hold out a little longer than that, at least until i save up the money to buy new ones. Also, a little off topic, but how much do you think a shop would pay to install 4 springs and one new shock/strut assembly? I'm thinking around 300, any thoughts would be appreciated.
