Hey guys, As most everyone knows I am of the mindset that the suspension and brakes should be upgraded before dumping gobs of HP into a car. Which brings me to this query. It is also known that I am pretty keen on Tokico Illumina Shocks, but I have never run anything else. On the otherhand they are not the only game in town and I have been looking at KYB also. Does anyone have any experience with the KYB shocks? <br><br>'Driver

My brother has them in his 91 AWD Talon with Eibach springs. They handle and ride nice.

Cool, I have heard a few guys around town that seem to have had good experiences with them. I think I may just try them.

Let me know what you think. I need to redo the suspension on my car as well and I haven't decided between KYB or Tokico.

Tokicos are a very good Dampener. Let me finish my 1st gen project and i will tell you how the blues feel! <br><br>hehe if anyone really cares my suspension upgrade has turned out to be a sickining chore. My friend and I messup putting the torsion bars in and one is stuck, so we yanked the subframe out from the car :) gotto go get that pressed out. Hope i didnt ruin my OPM 23mm bars! 200 bucks down the hole!

Ouch! That is why I just dropped the CRX assembly and bolted in and Integra assembly. No tweaking required.
