Anyone running the tokico illumina kit w/ the springs?

[SilverBullet00]

I ordered the bullitt kit for my car a couple days ago and I am already tired of waiting for it, its going to be another two weeks + shipping! So i saw on ebay a seller had a tokico package including the tokico illumina struts/shocks/ and springs all for $564. I was wondering if anyone else was running this? I know alot of people here are running the illumina's and love them, but I am not sure how the springs are doing....I cannot find and specs on them as far as rates go.

Also, I noticed that on some websites they have the bilsteins and the tokicos for "lowered cars"? does this mean i cannot buy the standard ones and use it on a lowered car?

Thanks guys!

I bought my Tokico package from eBay. I don't know about the spring rates, but the overall impression is favorable. I've had no problems and could immediately tell a diference in the handling. No regrets here.

What about getting the tokico hp struts and shocks (250 shipped) and then getting some FRPP "c" springs (130 shipped)? would these work well together? Or would it be best to stick with the bullitt suspension because the struts/shocks are valved for the springs? (HELP!)

Well for $19 bucks more, I'd get the whole Bullitt kit ($399 @ RPMOutlet but out of stock, however, I'm sure other companies sell it) and get the front and rear sway bars, as well as 1" lowering springs and Tokico non-adjustables.
But for me, I'd rather spend a bit more and get the adjustables.

the bullitt kit sounds like the best for the money, but every place I talked to is out of them! Most places arent expecting them till October! I have got a bad strut now so I dont think I can wait, I think I am going to get the mach 1 shocks/struts with FRPP C springs and steeda zinc plated subframes...how does that sound?

I bought the Tokico Illumina springs/shocks/struts kit also. I noticed an improvement in handling right away, but now thats the springs are settling more ( 3 months later) The rear is lower than the front It looks like I'm accelerating really hard all the time
