tokico. Better and if one blows out, you don't have to buy a set of all four. They come in sets of two (shocks/struts). Tokicos were also designed for a bit of a lower drop. Apx 1.5" compared to TRD 1.25ish. The best part, they are like 340 on ebay...

yup. direct replacement of the stock ones. If you are getting s techs, you might want to think about the hotchkis camber links too...
