Default New BB6 SH owner suspension question.

Howdy folks, i'm fresh from the dc2 camp and just picked up a 01 SH. I was looking around ebay for suspension and decided on the tokico illumia spring/shock combo, but is says it doesn't fit the sh.
As a matter of fact alot of the kits i saw while browsing some sites didn't fit the SH. From reading around i see that the suspension on the SH is a bit different than that of the base due the ATTS.
My questions are what are my options for suspension for this car? any recomendations? And where can i order it?
This car will be mainly a daily driver and i'm looking to keep an almost stock ride but alittle more sporty.

Thanks.

You can use aftermarket dampers/springs for the Base model for the SH. You just have to do it both at once. i.e. can't use base after market springs with your OEM SH dampers.
