Hi,

It looks like ill have to purchase some coilovers this year for my 1997 ES300.

I was just wondering what is the best deal anyone has come across lately. (Student budget lol)

Thanks,

well someone just got some tiens....not sure of the price
you have the ksport option from autoline industries for the $800-1000 price

whatever you do make sure you have full adjustability(height, dampening, and camber)

Thanks for your reply...

Anyone have a used set for sale by any chance?

there had been a set in the ES classifieds section for quite a while......check it out; I'd be suprised they weren't still there.

I was selling my ES JIC coilovers on the classifieds section (which is already sold).

Just don't buy coilover sleeves. <cough $25-sub-500 coilovers> If you don't know. The spring rates are so high that you could legally qualify for a few NASCAR events, along with the fact that no direct aftermarket struts are known to be strong enough to not blow out in a month->few months.
A McPherson setups is a McPherson setup. You can swap springs / struts from other cars with minor modification. Most "compact" domestic & about all Japanese cars use springs + struts in a McPherson setup.
Eventually, somebody is going to buy some of those low/medium end real Honda/DSM/Nissan coilovers off ebay for $500 & do modifications for those to fit. There's already been one Camry using aftermarket springs off a Saturn...

Why don't you learn to fab & weld, and be the first! LoL!!!

Hi,
I have been told the same about coilover sleeves. I was thinking if anything to try some lowering springs before the full coilover option... but my shocks are 9 years old and probably going as well...
