i need advice what kind of spring i should get for my tokico for a good setup ride
PLEASE HELP...!!!!!

sleeperrex

blues or illuminas?? how low do you want to go?

if u have some blues and want a moderate drop id go for the Eibach springs

cambopheonix56

What strut?

DJNauTicz

tokico blues ....
if i put a skunk2 in it will that be a nice smooth ride?

i was thinkin either 1.75 drop or 2.0
wateva is better

cambopheonix56

Blues are just a oe replacement, IIRC. So stechs. It really won't handle much else.

DJNauTicz

i know..i'm not tryin to make any diffent..but i want to make it ride a little smoother then then stock one that's all

so tokico blue with skunk2 spring's will tat be a decent setup?

pdiggitydogg

skunks are bouncy...

if you are concerned about your ***, the softest aftermarket spring is going to be tein h-tech

muasboi

my buddy had blues with neuspeed yellows, and they were soft(too soft for my taste)

but for comfort, that's what i'd go for

vlc92189

hows the stech anyone like em?

DJNauTicz

skunk2 are soft? if i race once in a blue..i like to make a good turn and stuff.so skunk2 or tien will be better i'm still decidin..some people told me..H&R is good
but i'm still thinkin
so more advice please

muasboi

i would go with blues and h&r race

the blues are too soft, but the springs make up for it, which makes it a pretty good setup, IMHO. my buddy has this setup.

blues are nice thats what im running with my TOKICO setup nice ride

blues are junk.

you might as well keep your stock struts.

Bwhahwa, your joking right? I am pretty sure that those struts would blow the instant you set your car down.

i really like the skunk2 with tokico blues thats what im running on my hatch and i think they are great

DJNauTicz

or something else??

mister_ej1

i had skunk2 coilovers...not full coilovers just sleeve....on my integra with stock shocks and it rode alright, i dont know why everybody says skunk2's are bouncy, maybe i just had good luck lol, i think for me though on my coupe i'll probably get skunk2 sleeves and kyb shocks

i ride tokico blues on skunk2 coilovers on my eg. about 2" drop. 8k front, 12k rear...been well over a year and they still hold.

Ok........

First of the Tokico Blues are not an OEM replacement. They are actually 15% stiffer the stock so that would make them an upgrade.

Second, if you plan on going with a spring that will lower your car more then 1.75" I wouldn't go with the Blues. They will not last.

I have Neuspeed Race which lowers the car 2.25" in the front and 2" in the back and I ran with Tokico Blues for a year until they took a crap on me! Since my car is stored for the winter, I ordered some Koni Yellows to replace them. If you want a good ride but with a car that is really low I would go with the Koni Yellow. They can be adjusted from soft (in the city) to stiff ( at the track).

Please don't do the mistake that most of us have done! If you are going to lower more then 1.75 get a good shock like the Koni Yellow so you won't have to waste your money again on purchasing another set of shock in a years time!

i used to have sk2 with tokico blues on my 94 hb. it was a good ride. it was slammed so shocks started to give up when i was close to the 2 year mark. it'll be decent.

I love my Tein S techs. The ride is not bad at all, there smooth and it dosn't slam the car, puts it at a nice stance. I had Skunk2 Sleeve overs in my old hatch and it was really stiff, I had koni yellows for struts.

I only run H&R's springs. I have used 2 sets of H&R's on two cars.
