well now...
the tokico's should be a better dampener for the bounciness but it depends on the life of the springs in your old coilovers, hold old are they?

that should be fine then, using the aero speed coilovers

but i think tokico offers a set of springs and shocks (package deal) not coilovers but they look and feel nice, just to throw another idea out there

well for ride quality i guess you would need to adjust to your preferences but getting the blues will definatley improve the ride of coilovers on stock shocks and struts

i wouldn't drop the car on the ground but i wouldn't raise the coilovers all the way up, lol, but i would definatley say with tokico shocks you will notice a much smoother ride and the car won't go all over the road, look at this way, anything is better than stock shocks, lol

its cool, if you don't ask how ya gonna know?

I had the blue strut/spring combo from tokico & it barley lowered my ek, they had a good ride quality, but not low enough. I do have the illumina r RAK real coilover set up on my 95 gsr & I do like that as I prefer my car to be low & the handling is pretty damn tight also.
