taken from this site, http://maxmods.dyndns.org/index.php?MaximaShocks
quote:
* Description: Tokico Blues are the non-adjustable OEM replacement shock closest to OEM. They don't provide much more damping than the original maxima shocks. They also have problems with the rears blowing and leaking when combined with stiff aftermarket springs (Eibachs and Ground Controls confirmed) while the fronts are generally fine. Otherwise they make great replacement shocks for stock springs. They will usually last between 10k-60k miles on a car with an aftermarket suspension depending on the stiffness of the spring before leaking or getting very soft.
* Cheapest price: $307.09 from http://www.southwestautoworks.com/


so yes, that is what i call replacement for stock.

I have the same set. It's fine for me. But I did end up blowing the driver side front. It's because I got a little brave after I had it installed, mated with a progress sway bar and a fstb. Plowing into 60+ mph off ramps day in and day out for the last 20k miles have done it. Considering the abuse I put it through, I consider myself lucky that I only blew out one. All in all I like the setup. If I beat on the thing like I usually do, I can justify spending a 100 bucks every 20k miles for a new strut.

All struts blow with abuse, none of them are bullet proof.

The HP's are matched with the springs. That's why the drop on the Tokico springs are conservative. A drop that's anything much more than that will strain the HP's and cause them to blow out prematurely. If you think about it, my one blow out is because of the abuse I put on them daily. I can't help but take all corners at a sharp angle. Even my friends have complained about my driving habit more than a few times. The oh shyt handles come in to use quite a bit in my car. Every car I've ever owned, I've destroyed the suspension. But I do spend the money to get them repaired right away and keep the car in good running condition. I believe even that one strut would have lasted quite a bit longer if it was not for my driving style.

It looks nice by the way, I'm not into heavy drops.

while we're at it, lets clarify one more thing. springs drop the car, not shocks. if you put the same tokico springs on the stock shocks that you took out, it will still be a 1.5 drop... suprise!!

99Automagic

I believe he said the Tokico "kit" so I'm assuming he means the strut/spring set that Tokico offers. Or at least I hope so.

yeas it's a kit/set they come together tokiko blue struts and tokiko red springs they r design for maxima and they have a life time warranty,and i love them.they r perfect for brooklyn ny sh...y roads. the same sprigs that comes with illumina kit/set couple of my friend has illumina kit tokiko sprigs and struts i didn't realy liked it

dosent looks to me like replacement for stock ,dosent feels like replacement for stock. i love them ,may be i m crazy,but i do love this kit/set. i was driving my friends maximas with diferent set ups, and i like this one better,like i told u all befor,for brooklyn ny sh...y roads they r perfect,and i love the way it feels when i m driving and i like the way its looks,they saying its a 1.25 drop but i think its like 1.5

Glad you're happy with the setup. I like it too. Why can't more people be happy for someone instead of acting like jerk offs in this place. All you wanted to do is show off your new suspension set, and the *****es come flying in. I bet they have absolutely no experience with the setup itself. They just go by what they read, which is the opinion of one or two people. I guess there's nothing you can really do about that.

s600ergy
