the blues kit lowers 1.5" f/r, the illumina kit lowers 1.75" f/r

i dont have any experience with their shocks, but here are some general discussions about them

I've got white Tokico shock and red lowering springs on my Si. i'm not sure how low it stands but it looks to be about an inch or so lowered. hope this helps.

I've got the Tokico illuminas(5 stage adj) with Tein S Tech springs, and the setup is nice. I love the setup so much, I would recommend it to anyone. Tokico is a good shock imo, the setup dropped my car even with the settings all on 5(stiff) to the point where my mudflaps scrape on turns once in awhile. Still, nice smooth ride! If you want any pics, pm me, I have a 99 coupe, same chassis if you have an ej.

I have the Illuminas. They're ok. If I had the $ I'd go with Teins or some other full coil over kits.

i've got the "illumina advanced handling kit". the shocks are great but the springs did not lower the car as much as advertised. only about 1" maybe less. so i would suggest staying away from the springs.
