tokico give a nice ride and the method of adjustment allows you to give an even adjustmet all round without guess in with the numbering notch system.
the ride of the setup is approx 1 - 1.5 inch which isnt all the noticable you still have a little over 1 inch gap.
also adjust the rear shock on a G2 is a bitch if you have large hands..
personally if i hand to do it again . i would prob go with Omnipower coilover. or an eibach Koni setup

okay first think about everything because a lot of people don't know everything that somes along with lowwer.........I personaly LOVE a slammed car.....my 94 ls was a 2in drop with springs my next teg I thinking about a 2.5 drop but I think it might be to low but I'm building for track only,,.....pros and cons ...pros...the car looks f*** cool as shit...and the performance is tons better,,,,,cons if you lowwer the car to much its a lot of wear on the axles,,,,and with a lowwer ride you DO have to brive alittle different you CAN'T just go up driveways and stuff like before..and speed bump are a bitch....
now the different..you have two choices...Coilovers or springs...spring give you the best ride...smooth as a babys ass.....that the good side but with spring you can't ajust them.. this suck if you live somewhere that has snow.. now coils are a adjustable witch is cool BUT coils aren't as smooth of a ride, so witch do you perfor,,,,,,????????
anyone else?????/

thanks guys,
Im really considering the Tokico shocks and springs, but like I said, Im stuck with a tight budget. Does anyone have this setup in their ride or knows of anyone (TOKICO HP (blues ones, not adjustable). Hows the ride?
and whats the drop? Im putting 17s on it with no bodykit (hate em). Think it'd look good?
If not this option, then a friend of mine told me to just to go with H&R race springs....let me know what y'all think.
