Yes, you can just use the Eibach springs with the Tokico or TRD struts (struts & shocks are essentially the same) . . . but if you were gonna use the Ground Control coilovers like I said before you should go with the Tokico struts instead of the TRD. lataz

I CAN'T stress enough how unsafe this product is. Keep in mind with this setup, you can't adjust the spring rate, it doesn't even come with the rubber bushing or whatever, so everytime you turn your steering wheel, it makes a creaking/groaning sound, you'll prematurely blow your struts, you'll suffer from sh*tty camber....i could go on longer if you want.

yea i know GC is bad, but i've asked some other people about it like Raphael and he said it's not that bad. Even David was gonna get a set too. So i was wondering how it was. Didn't know it was THAT bad.
