Nice! I think the df210 paired with the kyb will be really smooth. Can't wait to see your pics of them installed.

Sorry to ask a noob question here guys, but I have to replace all 4 struts on my 97 ES and I'm wondering if the suspension switch (sport to comfort range) has some bearing on what kind of struts you can use on the car? Am I able to use KYB's?

I'm kind of lost on the question you're asking. I've had both the tokico and kyb gr2's for the ES and they are pretty much the same thing as far as ride quality is concerned. They both ride pretty similar to stock if not a tad bit more firm. Hope this was the answer you were looking for.

Does anyone have the part number for the Tanabe DF210 springs for our ES330s?
I've searched the forum and online for our car as well as the '05 Camry V6 with no success on finding the correct springs/part number.
Any help would be appreciated.

OK, since I haven't heard anything, and after searching yesterday evening and all this morning, I ordered a set of H&R springs.
Part# 54685-2
I read that these are for the 07 and up Camry. I paid $250 for the set. I'll find out next month if they work or not with my set of KYBs that I ordered last week.

Tanabe > H&R anyday.

Seems like KYB is popular around here. Anyone know If Bilstein is applicable to these vehicles?
