Yea, tokico and eibach are really good companies. It shoudl be a good setup for the street. I'm not exactly sure if you have to use a spring compressor or not, never did anything like that by myself.

here's a link to a thread @ NICO that pretty much covers everything (may require registration; hell, why not, it's free ):

ATTENTION MODERATORS:
any chance we can get this gem put up in the FAQ section?

yeah, seems how it's a question asked at least once a week, I guess we should. We can't just cut and paste it here because there are pics, so did you just want me to put it in usefull links, or what. Email me.

Spring compressor isnt exactly MANDATORY, but unless you want to be blind-sided by a spring, or get knocked out by one then you should get one. they are like 40 bucks
