ive had my tokico for awhile now and have been riding it on firm setting with no probs. recently i adjusted it to the soft settings and now i can hear the shocks when they compress. i talk to tech at stillen and he said it was normal for me to hear the shocks compress at soft settings. is this true?

Does it sound like a little puff of air? My Tokico 5-ways make that noise when they are on the soft setting. Like he said, you would hear the travel of the shock on the soft setting.

BTW, where did you buy your dspecs, and how much?

Finally someone with Tokico replies. Exactly, it sounds like a lil puff of air. I purchased them at Stillen for $750 which includes installation fee. Thanks for replying now i know their is nothing wrong with my shocks.

Not on my Z, but I had KYB AGX shocks on my old Miata that did the same thing. Everyone with the shocks had the sound, and was totally normal. Just think of it as reminding you that the shocks are still working

Yeah I had that noise at first, but then I dialed mine in to 4 revs at the front and 3.5 at the rear...no point in having D-Specs if you are going to have them at their softest setting.

hmmm your settings sound interesting. how is the ride quality? i mostly drive in the crap roads of L.A. so i've been driving it on soft settings for awhile.

They're pretty stiff, but you could do 3.5 front and 3 rear and not have that sound I think. I hear ya on the crap roads, used to work in North Hollywood
