i dont think the HP / blues would handle the race... since race is about a 2.25 drop i believe

the illuminas would work much better if you wanted tokico.

if you have the money, get koni yellows.

I have Koni Yellows with my Neuspeed race springs and I love it. AS stiff as I want or soft as I want. It only takes a few moments to adjust.

I choose the Koni Yellows because the Shock body itself is shorter than a factory strut forexample. This allows for ample travel by the strut when needed. If you went with Tokico Blues (which I used to have on Skunk Coilovers) the shock will already be partially compressed which will eliminate some the shock travel needed while driving and cornering.

I've new a guy who used Tokico Illuminas and loved them. Get Illuminas if you don't want to spend the money on Koni Yellows. But I wouldn't get Tokico Blues if I were you.
