last year I baught some tunabe springs and this year I had enough money so I said wtf I will buy some decent struts since I know
i was suposed to upgrade the suspension and braking first, so I got my tokico d-spec adjustable struts for my car and they look good what can I say lol, but all that came with the struts is a key to adjust them, I feel like there should be a top piece to the strut,this might be a fuckin stupid question but am I missing something or are you suposed to use the stock top piece or what somebody please help me out there with some aftermarket tokico struts

new struts/shock do not include top mount. you should either use the existing top mount (out of your stock suspension), or replace with new ones from auto parts store, or you can always go with pillowball mount (Tein/SPL parts).

np man.
I have Tein on my AGX/RSR Race Spring setup... good, but, I would like the KTS even more, since you can actually adjust the height (for front only).
