if it's your daily, the tokikos are a pretty good choice. alot of the others will definately outperform them, but you're gonna get jossled around a bit more.

i have skunk2 full coilovers on my DA. they're pretty stiff, and not too bad of a ride. and i suggest them if you're looking for a cost-effective performance suspension, they're good stuff. if you're willing to fork out a little moe cash, i'd say go for the koni yellows w/ some ground control coilovers. i hear rave reviews about that setup.

however, your cheapest alternative for a little stiffer ride is just get some stiffer springs. if you know the spring rates of your current springs(if they're not stock) i/we can help you a bunch more.

good luck.

Depends on what you want to spend. The skunk2 coilovers are hella good.

Cheaper than koni/gc by about $150, and stiffer than skunk2 (assuming you are getting the omni sports).
