Tokico Illumina Suspension Kit

[pickens]

Just installed. I love it! Car is so darn stable under hard cornering its just simply amazing. HUGE improvement over my cheap GF springs and kyb gr2s. I definately reccomend this kit.

Good to hear. Looking at the kit myself, only with the Tokico Blues...but good to hear that the springs are decent and it performs well...

Im looking into this too. My GSX is my daily driver and the Espelirs are too stiff for the job especially for the passenger. I like how it corners but the stiffness is more for a race car.

PM me where you got it. I would like to get it in a few days.

Are you sure that your ride issues are caused by the Espelirs being too stiff, as opposed to them not being stiff enough for the amount of lowering? They lower by more than an inch and have front rates in 300# range. Sounds like a zip-tie test is in order.

You're in college, so be smart. Spend that $500 on Koni Sports and wait to do the springs some other time. Or cut one coil from the stockers while installing the Konis. Just don't get springs with a 1.75" drop and a rate that is only appropriate for half that much.

i love the adjustible part to them its nice to controll how stiff you want them. i really like this kit as well

Did you put the suspension in w/ or w/ out a camber kit? If you did, did you do front and rear?

 

[illusioneclipse]

I have the same kit installed in my car and it makes a huge difference. Although it is very low IMO only b/c i have a bodykit.

i just upgraded to the full kit from pro-kit. ride is much firmer yet still very good for daily driving, cornering is great. drop is just right in the front, any lower would be bad. i have a rear camber kit. front negative but with toe adjusted, tire wear seems to be pretty even. rotating wheels every 5k

Are yall scraping at all?

 

[DieharD]

i havent scraped yet. been 2 weeks. gotta drive a little more carefully of course but generally im pretty impressed.
