Most of what I've read confirms this but I'm not 100% positive. 92-96 v6 camry coilovers will fit my 93 es300, right or wrong? I'm primarily looking for coilovers with adjustable dampening. Anyone that has used camry coilover upgrades on their es300, please respond with how well it works and what sort of problems I may run into.

Recommended brands? From what I've read, k-sport, JIC and D2 are most noteworthy brands.

i use the ksports. and they are really good very adjustable dampening. the only problem is to access the rear adjustment points you have to completely disassemble your rear interior or uninstall them completely. If you do put them on go ahead and get ready for bushings to be replaced and cv joints to ear a bit more if you lower it as far as i did.

good luck

If you don't mind me asking, what k-sport model coilovers did you get? Did you just get coilovers made for the Camry V6 92-96?

yes because its the same chassis.

those will work, but id get different spring rates if thats possible

why would you need different spring rates? they are perfect once fully adjusted and installed correctly. Keep in mind these have adjuments for height, spring perch, camber, and dampening.

ok, so the springrate is 10/5? ive never seen a spring rate so odd. and btw, the higher the springrate number, the stiffer it starts to get right? because i want my coilovers to be really stiff because i plan to go wide wheels and fender flush rims. what spring rate would be recommended for my brothers 97 es300? the site says 7/5 es, 10/5 camry? btw he plans on going fender flush wheels and just stupidly low!
Thank You

alright boys n girls, just ordered up 2 sets of ksports, one for my 93 and another for my bros 97. should be here by end of this week, if not early next. btw, how do you set spring preload? and the guys that i ordered it through dont know what the max negative camber are for the ksports, can anyone chime in and let me know. 93 and 97
Thank You

The Japanese use those numbers as a measure of spring rates. That 10 in the front is pretty stiff, my old JIC coilovers were 7/5 and it was some what stiff already.

I'm not totally sure but I think 10 is in the range of 500 ft. lbs.

But if you need the stiffer suspension, go for it.
