well i love my eibachs but i have noticed that some people on this site don't like them too much so i am hoping that there is someone that doesn't like their tokicos...

i paid $220 for my eibachs + 120 for install...i thought i got ripped off for install since friends w/ integras got springs put in for $80 or less...it took them 4 hrs to install my springs and friends w/ integras said it took them less than 1 hr.

did i get a good deal? the place i went to charged me the stillen price but i didn't have to pay for shipping...thats why its better to go through places instead of buying yourself SOMETIMES (not always though)

It shouldn't have taken them 4 hours to do your springs. Turbo95Max, Mingo, and I did my struts in 4 hours, but this included messing around, compressing the Eibachs that were on my car already, and test driving the car. I'd estimate about 1.5 hours to do the install (Jane97SE's install took 1 hour). $120 sounds alright... Hogan (yo_its_ok) does it for around the same price. Jane97SE got her's done for $70 (struts and springs).

I'll sell you my Tokico's (stock struts are made by Tokico).

The rear....if anyone has done it in their garage....you know what I mean...for (2) freaking 14mm nuts/side....argh...
No problem! So when do I get my cut?

Yeah, the rear <b>nuts</b> are a pain to get to. hehehehehe... It's much easier to do them the second time around (took me a while to install my RSTB when I first got it).
