Which setup is better in your opinion?

Hey guys, I'm ridin' on srt-4 struts with eibach sportlines. I really want to get the tokiko illumina's (adjustable) but the price is a bit much.
Would the tokiko blue hp's be an upgrade from the srt-4 struts I am currently running?
Or should I just bite the bullet and save up for the Illuminas?
People who are running the hp's, how stiff are they?

I am not currently using either strut, but the Tokico HP's would be an improvement over the SRT struts. I think that your ride height will be lower, because they are made w/the non-SRT perch height.

Would you be insterested in buying my Koni Sports? These are the Illumina's arch enemy, as the Koni's have been said to be even better.
These are cartidges, but are already installed in the OEM strut housings, so its just plug and play, no hacking or modification needed.
I am selling them for $460, dropped from $500. I payed CA$900 new for these. Fronts have only 3000kms on them, and rears have 7000kms.
I'm also including coilovers with them as well as the receipts to take advantage of Koni's no hassle lifetime warranty
.
I'm putting this all up on ebay in the next couple days, so let me know if you are interested,
Thanks,
Darren

Holy _ _ _ _ ! That's awfully tempting!! Give me day to think about it. But I'll put dibs on them until I let you know in the next day.
Oh yeah, why are you selling them anyway?

I'm selling them only because I'm converting to air ride. They should be arriving tomorrow morning.

Yeah, I'll try and post a pic, but I'm having camera issues at the moment.
I'm riding on sportlines, but the drop isn't as low as it would be on non srt struts since the srt's have a higher perch bc of the stock 17's they come with.
Working on those pics though!
