Tokico Hp Kit with Blues

I have done extensive searching and was not able to come up with any results. I was wondering if anyone has the tockico Hp suspension kit with the blues not the luminas.

How is the handling, say compaired to a stock SE suspension?
How is the ride quality?

WIll this kit require a camber kit?

What other parts would I need for the install?

Laslty are the tokico springs to stiff for the tockcio blues?


Thank you

1. tokico HP are stock SE shocks replacement
2. ride quality is so-so
3. no need camber kit under 2.0" drop
4. u mite need new dustboots if they are torn
5. the drop isn't that low so it shoudln't be too stiff

I have the blues with eibach springs, but am swithing to illuminas. The ride is harsh going over bumps but handles well. But thats from the combination of suspension components. Blues are not adjustable. The ride is a little stiff. Sporty yes, but I bet if they were new again it would be different.

Blues are the softest available and most = to OEM ride, couple that with H & R springs and you will be doing just fine.

I dont know about that. I have been thinking about getting a camber kit for mine. eibachs & illuminas. You can actually see my tires slant inward at the top.

I have the Tokico HP Blues as well. And am using Intrax Springs. I've had the shocks since 97-98 and it's worn out. I'm getting another set. I don't use it for tracks or anything like that so the adjustable Illuminas is not going to do much for me.
