Default Settings for Tokico Adjustables...

Ok so I ditched the sleeper look and just finshed putting in: Eibach sportlines, Tockico adjustables, Energy suspension bushings and some 15" spoon wheels w/ Kuhmos. Driving the car now is great because the suspension doenst unload terribly like it did before on stock crap. But it seems pretty bouncy, more like the car is on coilovers. The struts are on setting 1 right now. Ive never had the ES bushings in a car either so perhaps thats whats making my ride feel more like its on coilovers. Ive yet to try any other settings but I just wanted to take a consensus on what others have theirs set on. By the way, since NTB says my car is too low to align( a whole 1.5"drop!), anyone in the MD/DC/ VA area who can do or reccomend a place that can perform a quality 4 wheel alignment, I'd appreciate it.

Well apparently most of you do. Maybe my next post will be "aluminium wing FS yO!" that should get some replies.

I set the struts on 3 today and it rides a whole lot nicer. still looking for alignment...

For autoX, run 4 or 5 in the rear, and 2 up front. Otherwise I run 2 rear and 1 front for street. Get an ST rear bar next and you'll love the car. As for alignment, you're probably pushing about -2 camber now. Rotate tires alot or get a camber kit for the front and rear.

thanks for the replies guys. Ive found that 3 in the rear and 2 in the front seem to be the best for where I drive (D.C.) to work everyday. The streets here are pretty bad. I need to get a front sway bar since my car is a STD. I have already ordered strut tower braces and the lower rear bar as well. But damnit I need a place that can align my car!
