yah no kidding i read your post on dori kaze

did you know:
i designed the logo for dorikaze over 3 yrs ago! haha

anyways, you can ask shaun here about the feel of my ride, he tends to like it alot.

but i would have to agree with what they said, my ride is NOT SUPER STIFF, i am not using a single rate spring either. so i would have to say that my ride is probably about 30-50% stiffer than stock, but the trick is i find too many people rely on their shocks to overdampen to compensate for their spring rates. now if this is what you are going to do, then i would not reccommend these. if you want to fine tuen your suspension and go around the same corner 50x choosing a different spring and shock adjustment every time, then get something adjustable,
i am unfamilier with what performance springs there are for your cressida, but i wouldn't imagine they would be the likes and rates of what them edmonton boys are running on their cars...

the kyb shock/strut complements my setup and i am satisfied with it...predictable, trackable, and streetable.

i have witenessed bad things about tokiko's but i know alot of people have them. downtown streets here have pretty big pot holes, and a friend of mine struck one and broke his shock, so everything has to be taken with a grain of salt.

but with the price you posted on dorikaze i think that is very resonable..
