Default ground control coilovers

Hello everybody, after much debating i have decided to go with some GC coilovers and a set of tokico illuminas. It will work good for my car and my driving.

I searched around and found that the GC's are specific for your shock application, but this is where i ran into a problem.

Since i am cheap and get everthing off of ebay i ran into a problem, when looking for the GC's on ebay, I realized they are all the same and don't have the different choices for the different shocks. Does this really matter? or will I have to order them off of ground-controls website.

TIA

the typical ground control kit will work fine for tokicos/stock shocks. if you had koni's, then youd have to worry.

call GC and ask them what there shelf rates are for the EF.

also you can swap the springs out with GC if they haven't been used to get the rates you want. thats what i did....
