I'm getting some new shocks and springs soon, (as soon as i can find them :) ) but i want some tokico hp shocks (blue's) for my 1g and i can't find them anywhere. i dunno maybe they don't make them for 1g's but i could have sworn i have seen 1g's with them before. i tryed searching the sponsors to this site but i can't seem to come up with anything.

If i end up not being able to get these what other ones would you recomend, but i'm on a budget also no more expesive than 400.

I am getting H&R springs too.
Thanks.

Tockico doesn't make shocks for 1G's. Your choices are basically KYB or Koni

Thats what i was starting to think. Damn, that sucks. So if i'm planning on lowering my car with the H&R sprot springs what would you guys recomend for shocks. I heard the KYB adjustables are too long or something? i don't remember but i don't want the GR2's because those are basicaly stock, and if i'm going to spend money on them i'd rather have some decent ones.
thanks again.

GR2's are an upgrade to a '90. They are gas charged and the stock ones aren't. The 1g didn't come with gas shocks until '93.

Really, hmm well that should be good, but i found a set of the adjustables for 390 shipped, so i don't know. Have any of you guys had these and what do you think compared to the gr2's.
