The illumina's are simply adjustable (and have a lifetime warranty).

i bought the same exact one your talkin about from ebay. Tokico Springs and shocks for 370 shipped. Well worth the money imo. I wouldnt spend anymore because the HP and Illuminas are pretty much the same quality. Illuminas just have a higher rating therefore the price goes up simply because they are adjustables....get the 370 deal its worth it..

it really depends how importan adjustability is for you. people like having adjustables so they can use firmer settins for the track to help w/ launching an stuff but then they still have the option to use something more comfortable for daily driving.

Actually the HP series is a 1.5 inch drop for the "low rider" look and the Illumina series is a .5/.75 drop for performance. The springs are stiffer for better handling.
