I have a 1988 Prelude Si with 4 wheel steering. I'd like to lower the stance a little and still have a decent ride. Are these what's known as (TOKICO Blues) and is anyone running this setup? Can anyone give me any advice or recommendations on this product. The auction says it will lower my car 1.5 inches and will work with 4WS. I have about $400 in my budget for lowering my car and want the best bang for the buck. Here's a link to the ebay auction:

Thanks! Bill

 

I used their shocks for years.....don't know much about their springs.
Seems like a decent little setup for a budget.

 

I have Tokiko Blues along with Skunk 2 coilovers. I love them. Handles for days

 

also used skunk 2 springs on tokico blues

 

I run the tokico blue struts and they are great...

 

For the price they are good,illuminas are better,obiously, but have used also with skunk2 coilovers and like the ride.

 

I use the blues for years on my street car and still do rides great with no problems. I use blues up front and whites in the back on my track car. IMO its a very good strut

 

they suck ***... I have on all 4's.

Last about a year, with neuspeed sport springs..

 

Thanks for the help and info.
I have it narrowed down to 3 choices.

Here they are:
1. TOKICO HP SHOCKS & SPRINGS -1.5" drop front and rear - $400 plus tax locally
(springs & Shocks)

2. EIBACH PROKIT LOWERING SPRINGS - 1.5" drop front and rear - $220.00 plus tax locally
(Springs only using my stock shocks)

3. H&R SPORT SPRINGS - 1.8 front drop and 1.8 rear drop - $225.00 ebay
(Springs only using my stock shocks)

I noticed that on the Tociko's that the springs aren't installed on the shocks. Would I have to disassemble my stock shocks and springs and use parts from them?

Thanks and what would you choose?

Bill

Was this a big drop or something? I am guessing it was 2.25"+ to have caused them to go out so fast. I used mine for 5yr/50kmi+ with Eibach ProKit@~1.2" for street driving around Chicago and over 500 miles of track driving. The day I tok them out they were still looking/feeling great but I decided to get Konis.

To the OP, not sure about your budget....but KONIs would make your day@$500/set if you can find them.
