I've had mine on for about 1.5 years... installed around 50-55K miles and now I have roughly 123K. They still work like a charm. I use them on stock springs at a setting of 2f/3r, seems like a very balanced ride between low-speed comfort and high-speed handling.

Ill let you know once I put mine on on sunday

I'm waiting for mine to come in, but on my 4th gen they were great. That's I'm getting them again

I have had mine for about 9 months and love the ride. I have them set at 3F/4R with S-techs and 245/40/18 tires.

i am looking in to getting some Tokiko shocks/struts and i need to kknow what differences there are between the HP's and the Illumina's and if teh extra money for the Illumina's is worth it.

I love mine too - I ran mine on stock springs for about 6 months using the same settings you mentioned, and just lately I upgraded to eibachs.

mine are on the way...woohoo

You're kidding me. Ohh, just noticed you don't live in the North East. Up here, I think, it's the worst setup you can do. Too many holes everywhere which makes the ride horrible.

I have 235/35/19 with S-Tech and Illuminas and I live here in the north east... Philly most of the time and during the winter times my 350Z stock rims with 235/40/18 tires go on... setting is 3/3...

Thinkin about changing it soon.. it's making this weird nose in the front driver side when i hit a very small hole or bump in the road or even anything REALLY REALLY small... but it only happens in the cold weather.. sticky struts?

Only difference I know is that you can adjust the shock valving on the illuminas. I like them - you can cut them back for a fairly soft ride for long trips, or cut them up for better handling. Only downside on the illuminas, as far as I'm concerned, is that their dampening ability/performance isn't consistent at different temperatures. When it's cold out, sometimes the lightest setting can feel more like a medium setting.

You mean, when I put them on FOR YOU on Sunday.

I've had mine for a pretty long time now on Tein H-Tech springs. Had them on 3/2 for the longest time. Lately they started to feel kinda "soft." So I stiffened them up - 4/4, and I'm happy again.

Yeah, the roads down here are real nice plus year round modding and no snow tires.

I love mine. I've had them for about a year and a half on Progress springs.

Just put mine on this afternoon with Djfrestyl. I have H&R springs on there at the moment. The ride is still a little clunkly and I am waiting for the springs to seat properly and settle down. Once I get an alignment Ill let you know how it feels.

Got ride set on 5/5. Seems pretty tight so far.

I love my illuminas with eibachs. I thought at first i wanted to replace my springs with softer ones when i had the stock shocks on there but then i got my beautiful illuminas and now houston/dallas is a brieze to drive through. i set them on 2/3 i have had no problems.

I have my illuminas set to 3f/4r and the ride isnt smooth, but I love the handling

I have progress springs, on stock sized tires/wheels

so is the ride smooth on good roads? or is it stiff?

i have progress/illuminas (3f/3r) as well and i like the ride..nothing to stiff/rough..even though the roads here are pretty bad i am completly happy with them..only wish progress dropped the car a little lower

its perfect on smoother roads, but when there is bad roads its kinda annoying.




but the odd thing is, I miss the ride when I get in something smoother. I get back in my car and go, ah this is how its supposed to be

yeah...i wish it kinda went lower. More like 2inches. But the ride is way better then compared to other springs. Thank God I didnt go with S-Techs.
