Tokicos?

I came across some Tokico Shocks and struts...but they look different from regular shocks...I dunno, maybe they are just made this way but I just wanna make sure I am looking at shocks and struts like it says i am...
Somebody said that tokicos are good shocks and struts to go with with the eibach prokit lowering springs. I wanted to get some opinions on these...what you guys think?

Will these work with the lowering springs? If not Bilsteins are next but i don't have the money to buy those...

Out of those 2 options id go with the illuminas(the white ones) theyre adjustable, if you cant afford them all around. at least get them in the front.

I have the pro-kit and the HP's and they really dont seem like enough strut, i plan on going to koni yellows before too long.

what are the HP's? anywho, so you think the white Illumina's will be good enough struts for the front with the lowering kit? I wanted to go ahead and do shocks and struts since i'm going to have both ends up for the rear...

Another question...I know when you lower the car you throw off the geometry...do you absolutely have to put in new relocation brackets and LCA's or can that be put off for a while? See i'm putting in a new rear end in the future, so I am wondering which order of building this thing I should take...

i havent done the LCARBs yet. but an adjustable panhard bar would definately be an item to get right away.

I like the unbalanced engineering panhar bar...
