not that i really plan to ever adjust them at all really (maybe) is there any real big difference between the two brands besides price?

Personally I was going to get KYB's but the store I was getting them from ran out. He wasnt going to get any in, so he gave me the Tokcicos for no added cost. I love them so far. Overall it really depends on the kind of drivng you do, or what kind of driving you are wanting to do.

Expect the tokico's to last about 1.5-2 years on a daily driven car and the KYBs to last a little longer. I hate tokico's. The illuminas are a pretty good sturt, but the HP's are straight garbage and will last nolonger than a year on any lowered car...

I like my Illuminas so far with the eibach coil overs, but haven't had any track time yet... Guess we'll find out! Hate I-5 near Fed Way
