TOKICO
 
Well i just ordered the tokico "performance package" from a place called ASI motorsports in San Diego. Comes with shocks springs and the camber ajusters. I get to pick it up tomarrow and take a wild guess how much i paid?????? $$371.76 including shipping!!!!! And i belive the will ship it anywere!!!
Does anyone know how long the install takes?

I assume by "camber adjusters" it mean camber adjusting bolts? The install shouldnt take that long...maybe four hours start to finish. Does this place have a website for this kit (so I can add it to the Performace FAQ) ?

yeah thier website is:
www.shox.com

and the kit is called "Tokico advanced handling kit" they have a ton of kits from just a sway bar, to just springs to full coilover kits. and they are the cheapist i have seen!!!

then its going to be a big pain in the ass to take off the bushings and whatnot off of the stock struts to reuse. youll also need a spring compressor

RE: TOKICO
 
well the spring compressor is easy, and what bushing do i reuse? they kit i got is "assembled and complete" from tokico. I was figuring it is just... pull the old one and put the new one in?

You have to use the top hats from the original struts...you dont really need air tools, but they do come in handy. Make sure you have a spring compressor and a way to get the center nut off. I made my own tool with vice grips, a tractor spark plug socket, and a 10mm socket with extension. The spark plug socket will turn the nut while the 10mm socket whill keep the strut shaft from turning.

Heres a pic...if you've looked at the top of the strut you'll understand what I mean.
