Did you know?

Did you know that the stock struts on our cars are Tokico's? I just looked at them while putting my lowering springs or spring on since that's as far as I have gotten. They say it just like this

part #
Nissan
Japan
Tokico

I will take a pick of it if you want.

tokicos arent any good. Bilstein is the best shock on the market from the factory.

I noticed that on my front struts too. But, I don't remember seeing anything on the rear shocks ?
