rsr race + tokico illu

Hi does anyone have a picture of them assembled but not on a car, because i am looking at mine and it seems that the rear shocks spring seat doesnt give that snug fit with the spring on, i can push the spring side to side, is that normal?

and is there any visual difference on the race springs and the down springs? (the spring it self that is)

thanks, sorry im at work so this is sloppy

By the way those are RSR race on KYB AGX. Or he might still have had the blown stock struts in that pic.

Make sure the top spring nut is fully tight. If it is, I am sure the weight of the car will take care of that looseness.

Oops! I asked for some pics from a friend on AOL of the same setup (Tokico + RSR's). Looks like he was misinformed at one time too.

Thanks for clearing that up dude.

Thanks for the help, i just havent really seen the springs loose like the way i am trying to describe it.

its like the spring seat on the tokico is too big for the rsr lol

so, whats the easiest way to determine if springs are race or down?

my set up is purchased from rishie over at autornd, and my friend kept asking me how am i suppose to know if its down or race, and i dont got an answer to that lol...
