try sillen, southwestautoworks, gracing might have some.

I have the H+R and tokico on my 2k2 and I like it. Eventually I will switch to the KYB AGX's for the adjustability tho.

You can also check tirerack.com or shox.com for the Tokico's.

I got toks for about 350 shipped from shox.com. They seem to be the best deal I could find.

I got my toks from shox.com for $290. Returned set never used. Adventon.com has the best prices, but shox.com will match them.

I have the Tokicos. But the KYBs weren't out yet. I would recommend the KYBs.

if you want smoother ride, then go with the Tokicos. i had Tokicos and Eibachs for almost 2 1/2 years. i really liked the shocks for everyday driving but wasn't really stiff enough for track racing so i switched to KYB AGXs.

Southwest Autoworks and Adventon have great prices, however the shipping can be a foctor. I found that shox.com had the best shipping prices and it made them the cheapest.

That's why I asked shox.com to match adventon's prices. Not only did I get the shocks and springs for the same price as adventon, I got shox.com's lower shipping charges.

even the softest setting on the AGXs is slightly stiffer than Tokico.
it's not bad for everyday driving(i drive everyday too ) it's just going to be stiffer than Tokicos.
