Default Tokico Blues With Eibach Springs

Application is a 00 gsr. drop is about 1.5 and the car has omni power upper control arms. will this setup work fine? i need some relatively cheap shocks to go with eibach pro springs because my eibach shocks are shot.

Blues are not fine. They suck donkey ***** with anything more than the mildest of springs (like OE sports or whatever).

OE drop is .5 (compare to stock itr ride height)
Sport is 1.7F 1.5 R drop
Race is 2.25F and 2R

I owned a set of the sport, i liked them but they tend to sag over time.. and so does Prokit, gotta watch out for that and the blues shocks would be fine for prokit but IF you drop it any more you need a better shock that can handel the drop.

Girlfriends integra is on tokico "blues" and springs and rides fine, feels pretty good for what it is. Ive always hated eibach springs though

Heres a pic for reference on the drop. Pretty easy to drive everyday without scraping on stuff that much. Then again she is a girl and still manages to tag up the bumpers

Oh i c, well i dont think they are eibach springs i believe they may still be tokico as they are red (unsure if color matters). Hers is pretty low not quite as much as my skunk2 springs on my DB but is nice to drive around town and handles pretty well.

I had tokico illuminas with ground control coilovers. I would save up for the illuminas. Heard to many bad stories about the blues.

lol my car bottoms out occasionally

koni ellow +prokit at softest settings cuz it creaks like wtf haunted house doors too much at the stiffest settings =\

ppl keep telling me to keep the shocks max stiff if i dont wanna scrape or bottom out as much as i do right now

guess that means ill needa shock rebuild?
and its bad to run completely stiff springs for daily driving so yea... i dunno
