I have tokio blues on my hatch right now and comparing those to my old kybs with skunk2 coilovers on both I would still have to say KYB's all the way. Much better .

yea probably, yea tokio blue's handle really good on pavement. Those bumps by my house i hate badly. I go like 5milesperhour. Everyone is alwasy like flying past me. They think i have a beater or somthing. surprise surprise. I treat that car better then i do myself.

jesus christ, you set them at 4 for street use??? mine are at 2 for the streets, and then up to 3 on the fronts and 4 on the rears for autoxing.

no wonder your ride sucks.

I would go with Koni adjustables. Or even JIC.

then i must truly be insane. my tokicos use the same setup on the street as auto-x (usually because i forget to set them down)

when i remember i run them at 1 all around for street

at auto-x its 1 front, rear at 5 (stock springs). altho i think that leaves the car too willing to rotate, so i am gonna dial the fronts up to 2 or 3 for autocross

the illuminas (tokico whites) have 5 settings.
