Default Anyone Useing Tokico Illuminas wit skunk 2 coils??

i was just wondering if anyone has this setup of tokico illuminas with 5 way adjustable struts and skunk 2 coil over springs.

i would just like to know how the ride quality is.

im going to be putting them onto a 97 ek and using the car for track and daily driver.

any reviews about them would help me out thanks.

I have the Omni slipover coils which I think have the same spring rates at the Skunk2s. They rode great for daily driver, but I feel like it didn't help much around turns. Also my rear shocks just recently blew lol

Put that setup on my cousins 97ek it rides very nice for daily, can't personally comment on track but I doubt you'd be dissapointed.

i use to have that set up and it worked great for every day and light track duties but i switched over to koni yellows and stuck with the SK2 coils and i like that even better, a bit pricey for shocks but i love em.

I just wanted to add that i had this setup for the past three years and it has not failed me yet. You will definitly not be disapointed. I recommend this setup to everyone!!. Highway at setting the tokicos at 5 rides good, setting at 3 on highway feels smoother. i like it stiff, like race car feel. But the only bad thing or i dont know if it has to do anything about it but everytime i hit a bump on the rear its pretty loud like a clunk, i was told it was the struts? but it nver bothered me. youll like the setup!
