I blew a shock (the front pass. side) and it was a crappy tokico blue shock that I pounded into submission during auto-x events and it took a **** and is leaking oil all over. I've got tanabe lowering springs that are stiffer than stock so I'd like to control the rebound with an adjustable shock and have read great things about the koni yellows. But due to my financial status (college student) I have little cash to deal with and I figure if a don't eat lunch for a few weeks I could afford yellows for just the front of my car.

My questoion is if this combo of good non-blown tokico blues in the back and adjustable koni yellows up front would be fine for daily driving and the occasional auto-x? I was thinking since there is more weight over the front wheels the adjustablity would be benificial

Also are there any bushings in the top caps that I should replace while I have the shocks off?

 

yes, your car will be fine wit hthat setup.

 

You can get poly spring isolators. I personally wouldn't mix suspension parts like that but it should work.
