I am getting ready to get a new set of struts, I have a 94-cx lowered with a set
of Eibach sportline springs, @1.6" drop I think.
Anyway, I would like to know the other users think about the Tokiko Illuminas
with the adjustable strut rod, or the Koni blues,
Eibach told me they recommend the Konis, but I like the idea of the adjustables.
Any info would be great,
I did not post this in the Autocross forum since I do not Autocross the vehicle
but figured the weight of the hatchback could have an effect on the way eight
strut would feel.
Thanks for any responces, an/or usable information.

 

if you have the money: konis yellow, if not tokiko adjustables would be good too.

 

Are the koni yellows adjustable on the top of the strut rod (for the front)
And aren't they adjustable on the strut body on the rear?

Wouldn't the illuminas be easier to adjust?

 

The koni yellows adjust from the top of the strut , both front and back . I would recomend them . I had them ,prior to buying my tein ss................best bang for your buck............. ,by the way my old setup was eibach pro kit springs with the koni yellows on my eg coupe,,,,,,,, ride was as good as it gets ,before you get into a high quality coilovers

konis are adjustable from the top of the strut on both front and rear. dont know about the illuminas. i say koni all the way. i had tokico and they didnt impress me.

 

Thanks guys, I will probably go for those...
I am curious if anybody has purchased them for cheaper than 166.00 each???

 

http://www.optionsautosalon.com i think is the site. i got mine for like 162.00 ea.
try http://www.groupbuycenter.com im sure you will find something there.

 

One last thing, are the adjustments in three settings or more?
I.E. soft, medium, and hard.
could you elaborate on it for me.

 

I just orderd Koni Yellows from summitracing.com. I think they were $139 each.

 

i my illuminas

 

They dont click or anything. You just turn them. You have to be exact to figure out your settings. You do it in fractions of a turn.
