Tokico Dspec
So I recently purchased tein s.tech lower springs and I was going to also purchase shocks before I put the springs so I can just do it all at once. I was looking at the TOKICO DSPEC ADJ. SHOCKS.. Has anyone used these? Or does anyone have some other shock absorbers that they recommend?

I love them. HPDE days just turn then to a stiffer setting, plus you can play with the difference between front and rear to get the oversteer or understeer if you prefer.
For the street the full still setting is WAY too harsh in my opinion. I use Racing Beat springs and Hotchkis bars front and rear. It's the best deal out there for not going to a fully adjustable coilover system.

I have the same suspension set-up as you! Just installed this weekend. How many turns do you use on all corners for daily driving? I tried 7 turns from full firm and I didn't like it at all Now on 5.5 turns from firm.. will play around some more!

I'm using three turns from full stiff which is a bit firmer than stock and perfect with the springs and sways for street use.

I was just going to start a thread to ask about this. I also have the s techs and was wondering what would be the BEST shocks to pare them with. My car is a dailey driver and I plan to track it next spring. Aslo what sways would you guys reccomend?

For sure.. BTW I have this set up in the front. Waiting for a replacement rear to fininsh my install. The dumb *** installer broke one of my rear struts.
I like the front though..

I love the D-Specs. I also use 3 turns off full for the street. 4-5 turns is probably closer to stock. I've found 1.5 turns on the front and 1 on the rear keeps the car neutral on the track, but I have stock sways and springs.
