Hey I have a few questions.
1) How low does the toickio blues drop the car
2) I know this has been answered before, but on my 01 I'm getting a 04 lights and bumper and does the srt-4 hood fit.

1). What kind of springs are you buying along with the Tokico Blues? If you are buying Tokico springs then the drop will be 1.4" all around...

2). Yes, the hood will fit.

Thank you neon god but what do you reccommend because the struts will drop it enough for me because I want to make sure the tires clear because I have 18's also I'm a big guy. If anything I would like to go perfomance

struts dont really drop it bro....the springs do...but if your a big guy you will need dependable aftermarket struts so your springs arent taking too much weight...or vicaversa

Well I'm around 300, and like I said I want the toickio blues and I think might as well get some springs but I'm putting the kaminari body kit on it and don't want a huge drop because its my daily driver for like ten more years

well you tokico blues are fine...those are good....just make sure when your picking out your springs that they dont lower the car MORE than 2inches.....the eibach pro kit..or some of the tein springs are good in my opinion...just dont go lower than 2inches. you might want to aim for 1.8 1.5 ish....

I autocross heavily and I have been wonering what I could buy on the fly for a good strut spring combo. I am looking at some Tokico Blue Struts and Eibach Sportlines...


I want something I can throw on and save for a full coilover system to throw on later. Im getting creamed in my SM class simply because I have no suspension[:'(]

I'm going to but the Kaminari kit and I don't want it to low because its my daily driver and my driveway is somewhat steep. All I know is that I want the blues and good performance not really lowering springs.
