Hi Folks. I'm back again with some questions. This time I'd like to know if I can mix match brands when it comes to struts/springs. What I mean is... can I use say tokico hp struts with tein springs? For that matter can I use other brand combinations? I tend to like uniformity but, I'm willing to mix/match if there are better options than one manufacturer's suspension "kit". Help!

Yes. Well not Tien becuase there full coilover, but normally any spring and strut can be fixed.

No issues.
I have Eibach Prokits and Koni Sports, work great!
As said in other threads dont go cheap tho!
When it comes to handling dont scrimp.
It is what keeps you on the road.
Next to good tires it is about the most important thing on the car.
You could have 1000hp
Or you could be the best driver
But if you cannot get it to the ground, what good is it?

Thanks for the inputs folks. Looks like I'm going with the Tokico Blue Strut/Spring Kit. It seems to fit my requirements perfectly. Anybody use this set?
