Illuminas 5-way Shock/strut

I'm considering changing the suspension my hatch and got a price of $600 CASH for 4, 5-Way Adjustable Illumina shock/strut

Not sure what springs or coils I'd be using but, I figure for an H22 hatch, it's good to have adjustable shock to help balance weight transfer.

Price too much?

if they are brand new in the box its a good price, if used its a rippoff.

Maybe just the struts in a stiff setting on stock springs may work for you... unless your looking for a lowered stance. otherwise go with a prokit or h&r OE's

That's exactly what I did Cablerat. 3 years ago no I payed 500CDN shipped to my door. I've noticed lately that the Illuminas are dropping in price rapidly.

how do h&r sport springs compare to the springs that tokico puts in their illumina kit? in terms of ride comfort, quality, etc.?

my last debate now is whether to go with this kit or go h&r sports + illuminas

opinions please!
