they dont have to be adjustable. koni makes a strut that is non-adjustable, it isnt out for our cars but it is still nonadjustable. that could be why they are alot cheaper too. tokico is a good brand though, they are pretty well known.

I had emailed Tockico a while back and they told me to expect them in the summer. Anyone email them lately to see if there out or try calling that company selling them.

Thumbs down STRAIGHT FROM THE HORSE'S MOUTH

I just got off the phone with Tokico. NO DEAL!!! They said VERBATIM "the drawings are about to be finished in June, then they can start ordering them which takes about 3-4 months. So WE ARE LOOKING AT THE END OF THE YEAR!" Okay, so stop all this nonsense about Tokicos cuz' they're NOT happening. I mean, hell, I just saw some company tryin' to sell KYBs for 2001-2002s on Ebay. So I sent him a fun e-mail, believe me. Let's all just face it...WE ARE STUCK WITH KONIS.

Diablo, I'm not tryin' to burst your bubble or anything, but I called your dealer and they didn't know what I was talking about. Did you talk to a guy named John? Just trying to figure out how he knows more than the company that makes them. I would really check into this before you get screwed. Tell him you talked to Tokico and repeat what they said to me (see my last post). Then see what he says. If he can seriously muster them up from somewhere then I'd say you got yourself a HUGE score, but as far as Tokico was concerned, the designs for them aren't even finished yet. Better check it out. AND get back to us. Interesting stuff here!

blah i'm tired of rumors of tokicos coming out.. unless there is actual proof, this thread is
-locked-

btw a link on a retailers thread is not proof. there are alot of retailers that post products that arent even out yet... unless if i see a picture of them on our car or hear it from tokico i will continue to lock thread that say they are out
