Tokico D-Spec Adjustable Shocks/Struts (WRX) #DSP-10

D-Spec (damping specific) is a new extra-wide range adjustable damping system from Tokico. The extra-wide range makes it possible to use D-Spec for street, auto cross, drag racing or even road racing. The D-Spec shocks & struts allow you to adjust rebound and compression simultaneously. Between hard and soft settings, the D-Spec shocks & struts are infinitely adjustable. The D-Spec shocks will give your WRX the performance adjustability WRX owners have long been waiting for. These shocks will allow you to be road racing one minute, then going on a long road trip the next minute, fine tuning your suspension to that specific need.

Applications

2002-2003 WRX ~ Direct Replacement
2004-2007 WRX ~ Require Scooby921 strut spacers for proper fitment
2004 STi ~ Require Scooby921 strut spacers for proper fitment
Important Note: Will not fit 2008+ WRX or 2005+ STi applications

Scooby921 Strut Spacers

These struts are designed for the '02-'03 model years, in order to use them in an '04+ application you either need to use the '02-'03 rear top hats (which is an expensive solution) or these spacers. They are made of 4150 steel and black oxide coated for durability. This kit includes spacers for the rear struts only as no modification is necessary for the front struts.

TiC Deep Nuts

These new deep nuts will allow you to use the Whiteline Max-C caster/camber plates with your Tokico struts which can be found here.

Install notes:

This nut is a tighter fit into the spherical bearing on the plates. To install them either tap the new nut into the bearing using a dead blow hammer (or at least pad the top with a piece of wood) or use a press. If you're really worried about it you can throw the nut in the freezer for a couple of hours.
You don't have to get it fully seated. Just enough to start the thread engagement, and then tightening them will draw them the rest of the way in.
Once tapped into place the plate with nut on the strut, and tighten to spec (about 45lbs).
Be sure to read the instructions for your plates to understand which side of the car they install on.
Make note to use the Whiteline conical washer that is included with the plates. The stock one will not work.
