Tokico D spec shocks/struts

[scramblr]

Zero issues after 5 years, 58K miles and who knows, maybe around 350+ track passes, and working like a charm.

they work with stocks springs right?

Yes

Bringing this thread back. Just got some d-specs but I am conflicted on which springs to accompany them with. I'm looking for something that will let me squat at the strip but not float me around on the street, and doesn't keep the rear end up in the air. I'd like to keep my stance as close as possible to my current setup (bilstein HDs and eibach prokit) on 275/30/19 nittos for when i show the car and drive it around town. So far I've heard Steeda UL, BMR, CJ are decent all around choices. Looking for input on 60' times and streetability. Pictures are even better! Thanks.

cj springs, 1.31 '60 so they work really well, ill ship them to you without any changes to my settings .

I've ran the Steeda UL's since I installed the D-Specs. 1.6 60' on straight asphalt, so I know that will drop on a prepped track.

poison, how are those CJ in terms of stance and drivability around town?

 

[scramblr]

I ran the CJs for awhile. They rose the rear too high for my liking and didn't notice any difference between those and the Steeda Ultra Lights.

I ran d-specs with eiabach pro kit and steeda sports. The pro kit had more of a drop but the ride in the steeda sports was much better.

Bringing this back up. Sorry i have not posted in a longgggg time!! Last spring(2012) on the first day i got my car out of storage (D spec shocks/struts & Eibach springs installed) i got smashed by a hit & run!! Did over $16,000 damage to my car. Sat in bodyshop all last summer. this year we had other home related issues here...so it's not been out much. NO track time yet....but they drive/ride fine on the street....ZERO odd noises...etc. Just the constant BMR adjustible upper rear control rm popping...LOL

Forgot to mention. My springs are the Drag Launch setup.

Are the bushings on the UCA shot? Did you notice any lack of traction with the UCA poping like that?
