Tokico Shocks

[AnthonyO3]

I was wondering if they came out with the Tokico shocks yet for the sedan? If so how much are they

 

[cbcbd]

Do you mean the Tokico struts that come on the MP3 and MSP?

 

[ozz]

you can get the tokico blues from mazdastuff

 

[AnthonyO3]

no i was reading in the new import tuner magazine that they have the Tokico HP series for the MP5, well its just a pic of the Mp5 on the Tokico page so i figured that they already have the HP series shocks for the protege, plus i heard somewhere that they were suppose to come out with the illuminas pretty soon for the P5 and sedan

supposedly TOkico has been making Illumina adjustable struts for about 3 years now, but other than that, I don't know...

my friend noticed the same advertisement and let me know, but ive yet to see them being sold.

 

[AnthonyO3]

if they are available i want them, i looked on tokico's website and under protege all they have is U's straight across the app;ication guide

 

[vindication]

I beleive the illumina's still haven't come out yet. The release date has been pushed back soo many times. I think they were supposed to be out last winter. If anybody can call them and ask them it would be great. Tell them we're tired of waiting.

I was at California Speedway in July and the Rep for Tokiko was there with a P5. It had H&R springs and Tokiko Illumina 5 way adjustables. He told me at the end of August... I haven't verified if they are out for sure, but if not, it should be soon.

 

[Equinox]

so I heard the EXACT story every august, I'm sorry, lol, I'm hard to make believe =P

btw U on their website stands for Under Development.

 

[garretts77]

Yeah, but their website looks like it hasnt been updated since mid 2002. A subscript "1" means estimated Fall 02...
I dont know. I guess I just believed him because I actually saw them on the car. He popped the hood and, pulled the rear seatbelt cover to show me the adjust points. We were talking for about 30 minutes. He said they were finished developing and were just waiting on the go-ahead for release...
Whatever, I can't afford them right now anyways. I am getting married and saving up to go to Tahiti...

getcha babe some ice, boi, lol. My babe is getting some blue adjustable ice.

 

[slamdp5]

I found these this morning really expensive but they are actually listed. I am going to see what Rishie can do on a complete set.

***Also a side note they list Sparco seat rails for our car which have not previously been released.

The rear JDM Mazdaspeed adjustable struts are made by Tokico, the fronts by KYB...They are just as good as the Illuminas will be when ever they are finished.

Not exactly sure what I am supposed to be looking for on that link! Can you tell me what I am looking at?

 

[Equinox]

it's not a direct link, you have to go to the suspension section, then the mazda, then protege5, then find the struts, list for 159-165

 

[Rider69]

Yeah, I found the...OUT OF STOCK...but I thought maybe there was something on that page I was supposed ot find!
