Default Loving my Tokico Blues/Neuspeed springs!

Got the combo on, really like it. Makes the car feel like my Integra used to. Ok, maybe not that good. Big improvement over stock. 98 lx.

And the fix for my rattle in the rear was a clip that separates the two bars on the top of the trunk lid. $2.00 part, no more rattle.

peace.

when you get some extra cash, swap out those blues for some koni yellow or tokico illumina.

I would never run Neuspeeds with blues. I am running Neuspeeds with KYB AGX's and i been having problems with shocks going out, Just too low and stiff. Go with koni yellows.

I give you 6months before you have to replace your shocks.

You can get yellows for around $500 for 4 shipped.

tokico blues are mainly meant for a match with the OEM springs.

i bought a set of brand new blues for $100 a while back. i remember reading the papers that came with them that they were warranted up to a 1'' or 1.25'' or so drop. ive been riding on neuspeed sport and tokico blues for over 3 yrs waiting for them to blow so i can upgrade to some illuminas or koni yellows but it hasnt happend.

I've had blues for over 3 years too and no problems. I first had them on neuspeed springs then I moved to GC sleeves. So far so good.

i know it's a little irrelevant, but for the koni yellows... how long do they usually last with everyday driving? more than a couple years? oh, and they'll be with eibach sportlines.
