Tokico Illumina Shocks/Springs or KYB AGX and Eibach Sportlines?
I found this on ebay
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...spagename=WDVW and wanted to know if anybody had this setup. It looks to be a really good price, I wanted to know if this would be a quality setup? I just ordered new 16 inch rims and tires off tires.com and am going to be interrested in lowering my ride. Which would be the better setup, for handling: Tokico Illumina Shocks and Springs ($465 w/shipping) or KYB AGX Shocks and Eibach Sportline Springs ($510 w/shipping) or Any other combination Any comments are greatly appreciated, Thanks, 0SER And I've got a camber kit in mind also.

Personally I think Sportlines are too harsh for street use. I would look into H&R springs with either strut(Illumina or AGX) Illuminas are slightly better, and always with suspension buy the best you can afford the FIRST TIME!

Ok, so, if I wanted to get the best I can afford the first time, I would probably want to get some Koni Yellows with H&R Springs?
I found some more ebay stuff. Koni Yellow Front ($291.20 w/shipping) http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...spagename=WD1V Koni Yellow Rear ($291.20 w/shipping) http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...spagename=WD1V and then H&R Sport Springs ($145.00 w/shipping) http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...spagename=WD1V Total = $727.40 Does this sound like a good deal? Would this setup be superior to the ones I listed before?

2. Tokico Illumina 3. KYB AGX 4. Bilstein HD 5. Koni red 6. Tokico HP 8. KYB GR2 Not only do Koni sports feature adjustable dampening they are also capable of minimal ride height adjustments. In my opinion H&R makes the best springs for the money. I work with suspensions everyday and to be honest more complaints come from Eibach owners than H&R. My 91 si has Eibach Pro Kit springs which for the minimal lowering they should be a little softer, the sprortlines are much stiffer.

So I assume that you would recommend Tokico Illuminas with H & R Sport Springs? I think that's what is looking the best, performance-to-price-wise. I really do appreciate all of the comments, thanks!

Illuminas with H&R sports will be a nice setup. One thing to keep in mind with adjustable struts - leave them on the softest setting for the first 500 miles or so & DO NO drive around with them on their stiffest setting for long periods.
