i havent checked on the tein springs, but i know they're a good company. Tokico is also good, but you're looking at a base model. If you want to go with Tokico, pick up a set of illuminas or any other good, adjustable sets. You'll be happier if you can tweak a few adjustments to make the car ride soft or stiff depending on how you feel like driving at any given time.

Eibach or Neuspeed springs with a nice set of Illuminas will float your boat nicely. Shouldn't run past $500.

i was going to post about the Tokico blues as well, i think you should get illuminas for a few reasons but mainly b/c they are adjustable. and ive heard good things about the kyb agx's and theyre relatively inexpensive too.
i have a used set of neuspeed sport springs(1.75" drop) that i will be putting up for sale this week. they are comfortable and will improve looks and handling alittle. it'll save you some money, if you want them let me know.

I had the Tein S-Techs on my Integra. I had Tokiko Blues only in the rear because I was saving for Koni Yellows all around. I had stock shocks up front which sucked major ***, the Teins were a little soft up front but I was still very happy, if you get them, get good shocks though, at least the Illuminas. Also I dont think the guys at Tein are good at conversions becasue they claim "1.5 inch" drop, but it was at LEAST 2". The front was dumped.

excellent choice on your setup but i think the tiens are a little pricey.awesome equipment but i'd go with an eibach prokit inch and a half drop with a set of kyb agx adjustables ...... my Si handles like a dream with that setup ...... get some falken azenis or bridgestone potenza so3's and you'll be hugging the road.
