get the shocks....

I know koni does not make them yet but Tokico does... so my advice is get the shocks and springs together.... the factory shocks will not work well with the higher spring rate of the eibachs.... I have the factory shocks right now with eibachs and they don't work well, must have tokicos or konis (when they come out)....You'll save money on install if you do both together.

HUMMMM, did you guys know that Konis from 4th gen will fit on 5th gen also????

Of course, modification required for the fronts just like the 4th gens..

Really?.... what kind of modification? is it just cutting the top of the strut to install the cartridge or something else?.... has anyone done this?
