1st Gen shock and spring combos

Already set to do a full suspension bushing replacement. Next is the shock and spring selection.By the way, went for the black poly bushings. I'm currently looking at Tokico shocks and Eibach springs to finish the job. Trying to get the better than stock feel for street use. Also came across Koni shocks. I'd be grateful for any input on combos to top off this job. Thanx.

A lot of poeple use tokico shocks and racingbeat springs. I plan on doing that and then in the future sometime i'll get sway bars and a strut bar. Do some research on it though

I have the Illumina shocks/struts with the Racing Beat springs. Very nice setup if you plan to autocross, but might be a little rough for just street use. If you don't intend to race, then I would suggest the Tokico Blue shocks/struts.
