tons of good info here! Any luck on those adjustable arms? My wife just got Jic Magic's in her 147 but is looking into fixing her alignment issue and is in the market of adjustable goodies, locally preferred. What part of AZ are you in? To add to this she had kyb shocks with espilir(spelling) springs from a sc400 that bolted right in with no mods. Did in fact lower it enought to get rid of wheel gap up front and 2-3 inches in the rear lower then it should have so i wouldn't recommend it. We threw in those cheap spring clamps in the rear to raise it an extra 1.5 inches that you can buy to raise or lower cars but like i said not recomended if you want my honest opinion. You can use the stock springs from a sc300/400 or mkiv supra but you HAVE to use the shocks too cause the springs are a different shape and wont work with your stock shocks the the 147. that was my .02 for anyone looking go lower for cheap.

ps. Sticky this somebody.
