well ive been in the scene for a couple years and ive always lowered my car w/o buying shocks yeah i know i was young and i came up on a good deal

brand new still almost sealed in box tokico blues

with skunkworks coilovers also brand new even in the Og skunkworks box

all for 320


my question is how far can i lower with these shocks w/o risking blowing them? also it comes with a huge bump stop which probably wont let me lower it as much as i want to im not going for ultimate slammed just a 2 finger gap at most is it ok to cut the bump stops just like half?

 

I have them on my CRX and don't like them. Don't know if they're just terrible or blown but they do a terrible job of controlling the Neuspeed Race springs I have. I've heard that KYB AGX's are good for the money.

 

haha yeah i figured two of my friends got them and there rides feel decent but still crazy at times, it was good deal so better than rollin on stockers

 

I have the tokico blues and skunk2 coilovers. I bought them off my friend for the same price you got yours. However, mine dont have the bumpstops anymore. I just noticed it recently (I didnt know much when I bought them so I never paid attention to that)

I'm dropped to about the 2-finger gap all the way around. Rides fine. Firm but not bad at all compared to other cars i've ridden in. I've had them like this for over a year and a half now.

I'm riding around on no bumpstops with no problems, so I think you can trim yours down a bit and still be safe..
In fact, I think the skunk instructions say to do that.

 

oh ok cool

Tokico blues should not be used with race springs because of the high spring rates. The shocks will not provide enough dampening, and will make for a very uncomfortable ride with race springs. Blues are only slightly better than OEM shocks. Your best bet would be adjustable shocks, such as Tokico Whites or Konis.

 

sigh there only slightly better than oem ? :/

 

Ouch, now that I have also realized that I believe it is time to look elsewhere for some shocks.
