If so how do you like them? And what spring combination are you using? I'm considering D-Specs with RS-R Ti springs.

They are 16 way adjustable shocks by Tokico. And I'm now sure how long they've been out. Anyone with these? How hard are they to adjust?

don't know anyone who has used them...but i love my koni sport adjustables. i honestly don't see a need for 16 levels of adjustment, unless you plan on doing some autocrossing or racing. i leave my koni's on the softest setting, anything more is too rough for daily driving.


btw post more pics of the z damnit

I don't plan on doing any autocrossing or racing. Just heard nothing but good about these.

I'm not a big fan of Tokico shocks in general.

Yeah I have mixed opinions on Tokico shocks as well. I generally stick with KYB or Bilstein.

Go for it. Pick up some OBX coilover sleeves while you're at it.
