the diff is though he would not have to modify the oem front struts to make them work. these are direct replacements. i have not heard anything about the springs but i have the struts on my 98 cavi with goldlines and i love them.
I have the same setup and actually bought it off of Ebay from the same company. They had it to me 4 days from the time I purchased it. I love the way my car rides now, and the suspension is really easy to adjust. Its definitely a firm ride, but not harsh. It rides like its on rails now. The only problem I came across when intalling it was the kit did not come with spacers for the top shaft nut on the front struts. You will need a cutoff tool of some sort to cut the flared end off of the stock nut and use that as a spacer. You can't re-use the stock nut becasue the threads are different on the Tokico struts. But other than that, the install was a piece of cake.
If you need a spacer, use washers. The factory nut is a 14X2mm thread and the D-specs are probably 14X1.5mm thread

Only problem is the teins arn't adjustable.
If your just going for a firm and sporty ride however the teins are excellent.
Otherwise that seems like a pretty good deal. Personally I'd get the koni combo tho.

The TEIN basics which are the only ones currently available are ride height adjustable ONLY, not dampening adjustment.
The Super Streets will have adjustable dampening when they are released.

im riding the D-specs with goldline springs, and the ride is amazing. Id take D-specs over Koni's anyday. no moding the stock struts. direct replacement, and adjustability is easy and theres a pretty wide range of adjustablitily. never met anyone with the springs, so i cant comment on those, but id deffinately reccomend the struts

Anyone use the H&R springs on the tokico struts?
