Tokico Illuminas (how hard to adjust)?

[dlacombe]

I am thinking about buying these but I am wondering if I should just go with the TOkico HP's. How hard are these Illulminas to adjust and if anyone has these how often do you really adjust them? Does anyone have any suggestions. I have my 2" goldline springs and am still waiting to see which shocks I should buy. Please let me know what you guys think.

I have the Illuminas, with Eibach springs, and I think they are great. They are very easy to adjust; basically it's just turning a little tiny screw on the top. Of course getting to that screw in my Spyder is a bit of a crawl into the back seet.

I set them, changed it once because they were way too stiff, and never messed with them again. Once I change the sway bars, I'll probably tune it a bit more. If you are the racing type, you could set them for a track session and then change them back for street use.

I've had the Tokico's on my car for more than a year with stock springs and can tell you from track experience that they are very good. The difference between the softest and hardest setting is unbelievable. To adjust the fronts takes about 2 seconds and the rears all that's needed is to pull the plastic cover off the interior and there it is.

Back then I got mine for $80, but they have since been raised to approx. $120ea.

Good Luck
