I am thinking about getting the eibach prokit. I am looking for some shocks and struts to replace when I change the springs. I have read that kyb are not that good. How are tockio hps? Do i need to get these for 94-04 or do I need to get a different year shocks for a lowered car? I am looking to spend less than 500

I recommend the Tokico illuma's if your gonna spend around $4-500. They work great with the pro-kit and they are adjustable too. Softening them up for long trips and then setting them tighter for quick jumps is great.

Shocks should work fine on a lowerd car. I had FMS C Springs before I sold my car I never got a chance to put the Tokico's on before the car was sold. Check my sig.

I had tokico blues with steeda springs. they were ok, i'd definitely suggest getting an adjustable set.

For different year shocks, yes, look into getting fox body shocks/struts. They mount just the same, just have a shorter travel, which is what you want for a lowered car. I had fox body's on mine and they worked just fine.
