I am attacking the suspension on my SHO in the next couple months.....I have been reading on here and hounding SHOTIME with questions etc. I was pretty much set on the Eibach/Tokico setup until I saw Autobahnsho's Intrax pics. I like the stance on that.....It seems that people with Intrax go with KYB....Can someone shed some light on this for me? Are their ride differences? duribility concerns? My SHO ride like **** right now so anything will be better.....I appreciate a good ride, can deal with a stiff one, and want good handling but not track like set up. Thanks...Pics would be great as well. Also what else should I replace....I picked up strut mounts and was told strut bushings as well and endlinks for my swaybar....thanks SHOforum

I have the Tokico/Eibach setup and absolutly love it. Things to replace: Strut mounts/bearings, swaybar endlink bushings, pinch bolts. You might also consider upgrading your subframe bushings. I currently have the aluminum SFB from SHO Nut and again...I absolutely love them. You will hear lots of people talk about how your car handles with the aluminum SFB, but to get the full effects of them you must also have good struts and springs. I now know what it is like to change lanes with the slightest of movements. thumbs_u

This pic has been pretty much worn out as of late and people are probably tired of seeing it...but here it is anyhow.

don't go with the KYB's, they'll wear out in a year or 2 under the intrax springs. Spring for the Konis, the ride is awesome.

I went with the Intrax with the limited Bondurant struts. I love this set up. I had the Eibach and Tokico's before this. I would really like to see a set of Intrax teamed with the Tokico's. Although I must say that the struts I have do very well with the Intrax.
