I was considering these shocks and was looking for user reviews... I've searched, didn't come up with much....

From what I've read most like them. I haven't heard anything bad about them.

Mine are still working great! I'm pretty happy overall.

I used to have them on an Integra back in the day. Good performance upgrade for the street. Quality parts, but nothing special.

What are you doing with the car? Street car = good upgrade. Autox? Your money is better spent elsewhere.

I enjoyed the Tokico blue's on my N/A and turbo. Drove around on them for 5 years or so with no problems. Sold them a year or two ago and they're still working on the new owners car. They were solid and matched the spring rate of the Tokico springs quite well.

Upgraded to coilovers, obviously if you can get coilovers they are a better choice in every aspect.

Mine are paired with GReddy springs (discontinued). I have no complaints.

Have had my blue Tokico non-adjuststables since '98 on several diff Sups... no problems with my Eibachs.

As far as being blown, everything I've seen about the blown ones suggest that ppl did not keep or replace the bumpstops (especially in the front). Anyways, for ~$200 a set and a couple of new bumpstops, I have no complaints at all... still feel great today.

Couple more years and they'll be 10 years old (10 years of use), still w/lifetime warranty.

I had a set on my old supra and all 4 of them blew out in a year and a half. (Had new stops too). I had them on stock shocks and they were hard as heck, bent the two front rims(sawblades!) driving in NY. The car handled really well though. Looking back, I think what probably helped them end their lives early was having the car jacked up in the air for a while.

I have illumina II's with eibachs now, the ride is a little softer.
