I have a 2000 si and Im thinking of going with tokico hp shock/struts with H&R sport springs. Will that work alright? Will the drop I get be basically whatever the spring is supposed to give me (1.6" I think) even with the tokico shocks? Anyone with some experience with this combination feel free to make some suggestions or comments. Thanx!

 

they'll work.

but for the money, you could probably get a slightly better setup at a slightly higher cost.

is saving money you're objective?

that setup is about $500 - $600. you could get a full coilover system or koni yellows and those same H&R springs.

koni yellows pwn on teh race track, if you get a good spring combination.

 

saving money is a little bit of a concern but the difference between the koni yellow's and the tokico hp's is close to $300. I'm not one to skimp on a part to save some petty cash but Im also not trying to create a race car, just something fun to drive around town. I would just go with springs but I know they arent great on the stock shocks and I'll probably end up replacing them a little ways down the road anyway. I really just want a quality shock and spring combo that will give me about a 1.5" drop and not have to spend a ton on it.

it's obvious your either serious, or semi-serious about performance which usually means you'll want something better down the road.

pay a little more and at least get the tokico illumina adjustable shocks.

and you may also want to get threaded coilovers that can lower or raise your ride height up to 4 inches. skunk2 and ground control are pretty famous for their versions.

search around and you can probably get this set up for about $600 - $700. not dirt cheap but not sooper expensive.
