Cheapest way to get Illuminas and Eibach/H&R -- CHEAPER than Illumina kit!
If anyone knows a better way, then feel free to correct me -- and if it sounds as good to you as it does to me, bump it to let more people know:
1. Tokico Illumina struts from www.performancepeddler.com: $120 each w/ free shipping. On the front page in the upper-lefthand corner, there's a space for a "Wholesale Login". Type "maxima" in there and login to get the discounted price.

2. Tokico Illumina shocks from www.adventon.com: $138.50 for the pair, free shipping.

3. Eibach Pro-Kit ($223.72) or H&R Sport ($182.50) springs from www.adventon.com, free shipping. Just browse the site.
For some reason www.adventon.com is down at the time I'm posting this, but those are the prices I saw recently.
Anyway, grand total is just over $600 shipped with the Eibachs (will handle slightly better), or just under $600 shipped with the H&Rs (will be slightly comfier). The Illumina spring/strut/shock kit sells for $650+, and apparently the springs that come with it are somewhere between the H&Rs and Eibachs in terms of ride comfort and handling.

ummm, that is some very old news man. I got my illuminas from performancepeddler some 4 months ago with the "maxima" login.
As far as these sites/locations being cheapest.....hmmm...don't count on it. As always, the cheapest place to buy ALMOST anything nowadays is E-bay.
Of course it depends when you look, but brand new items found there from sellers with 100% positive feedback are the best bargain.
I don't mean to disrespect, but you seem to be all hyped up on H&Rs selling for $182.50. I have H&Rs and have seen them on ebay before (brand new in the box) for around $170 shipped. Although at this particular instance, they seem to be a little bit more.

As far as the Illumina's got mine through performance peddler on the group buy for $408 shipped about 6 months ago. That was the best price then, gives you a guide line, good luck

I know everyone knows about the maxima login, and I know you can get everything from PerformancePeddler for $408 shipped... but if you get the struts from them and the shocks from Adventon, the total is $378 shipped. That makes them almost as cheap as AGX, no?

Pulling an old thread back from the grave here. Looking to put springs & struts (thinking H&R w/Illumnas) on my dad's '02 and am looking for the best price. Adventon still has the great price on the H&R springs but they only have Tokico Blues in their catalog, not the Illuminas. Performance Peddler's Illuminas are $156.74 each, which seems pretty expensive. Any thoughts on a good place to get Iluminas? Thanks.
Edit: Crap, I just realized that this is in the 4th gen forum, sorry about that. I found this via google search. Anyway, does anyone have any ideas?
