I need new struts for my IS
What struts should I buy for my 02 IS300 SportX? Mostly a daily driver but I do autocross it.

I'd recommend the Tokico Illuminas + Swift Racing Springs. Ive autocrossed my IS300 with them on Tein S-tech springs and they perform quite well. Even at full stiff the suspension is nice enough for daily driving.

Definitely go with coilovers for $1k, you won't regret it!
