Shocks/struts!!!

thechAd · 03-14-2008, 10:08 AM

Okay I have had my Skunk2 springs on for about a year now and have been waiting for some shocks to come out that will compliment them better than the stocks that came on my 07 Si coupe. After a quick search I can't seem to find any. Anyone know of any that are out for us yet?

thechAd · 03-17-2008, 03:15 PM

nobody?

***Angelsi06*** · 03-17-2008, 03:16 PM

Tokico Makes good Shcoks and would help you ride quality

***Izzy*** · 03-17-2008, 03:21 PM

The Tokico shocks are OEM replacements. They'll wear out just as fast as his stock ones.

And most everyone is still waiting on those Koni OTS yellows.

***Angelsi06*** · 03-17-2008, 03:25 PM

I though Tokico made the Blue(Which is OEM) and then the Hps which are a little more agreesive. Koni's are f**king sweet! i just installed some this weekend on my buddies RSX.. Man what a PITA! But well worth it

***Izzy*** · 03-17-2008, 03:27 PM

Didn't know that the HP came out already! It's on ProCivic.com, if the OP is interested. Haven't heard much about them, so my post has become completely moot. LOL.

So the koni's are made for the lowered stance that the Skunk2 springs give? Which ones?

***Angelsi06*** · 03-17-2008, 04:31 PM

Yeah.. Konis give u either a nice soft ride or a stiff ride depending on the adjustment you have them on. If It was me doing the set up. I would wait for the Koni susp. Their warranty is great too

thechAd · 03-17-2008, 04:42 PM

so the answer to my original question is, No? There aren't currently any good shocks out for my lowered 07 Si?

Al.BrEeZy · 03-17-2008, 04:45 PM

Good question. I know they have been working on them, but I dont know if they have said an ETA for them.

Xenin · 03-17-2008, 05:13 PM

by the time good shocks are out, the 9thGen Civic will be on sale.

Si_Jeff · 03-17-2008, 05:26 PM

^^ word.. i suggest just get the tokico's since your stock shocks might blow and the koni's are not gonna be out yet

***Angelsi06*** · 03-17-2008, 05:26 PM

^^ LOL and the 10th will be out by the time the 9th gets good shocks.. its all one big cycle

aren't the tokico hp colored blue as well? or this is the same oem replacement you're talking about?

***Angelsi06*** · 03-17-2008, 05:44 PM

The Tockico Blue(non adjustable). The Hp is White and is adjustable.

Blue is more Stock replacement for lowered cars and the Hp's are a little more agressive.

Al.BrEeZy · 03-17-2008, 05:47 PM

http://www.koni-na.com/fsd.cfm?x=38&y=15 what about these for our
SI's?

Si_Jeff · 03-17-2008, 05:47 PM

oh, aren't the white called illumina's? I checked and they dont have the illumina's out yet for out cars but they have the tokico hp which is blue that's out already. lol

Al.BrEeZy · 03-17-2008, 05:48 PM

why does koni say our cars got the sport yellows?

Xenin · 03-17-2008, 05:48 PM

i believe Tokico will be releasing the HTS which is like the D-Spec which adjusts rebound and compression.

dont know when that will be though, still shows in development on their site.
