Default 96 Aristo

I just installed my coilover suspension this week on my 96 GS. I love the look now just waiting to get the wheels. But upon looking at the suspension i noticed that i am going to have to replace most of the suspension parts to new aftermarket ones so that they can work good with the new coilovers. Ive been looking on line and its hard to find parts for the 1st Gen.

I noticed you put up this list, so all of these parts will fit the 1st Gen even if they are aftermarket, and also without any issues.

I approve this message since it will be a while till I touch my GS300 baby. Go for it Cuban!


EDIT: I updated all the pic inks since Photobucket decided to change all my albums.

The answer is.... maybe. Questions/answers for you:

> Does your JZS143 comes with airsus from factory?
> The real issue here is how long are the casings for the 143 vs 147. As you know, the JZA80 coilovers are shorter to the 147 coilover units but not short enough to not be able to use them (I had Tein SS from a JZA80 on my GS before and I hated the ride height).
> I strongly believe the fronts would fit without an issue but the real pita is how the rears would fit.

Snap some pics of the rear strut tower and lower section of the strut in the car so we can compare them to the 147.

Yes it's useful, I just tried to replace my inner front left tie rod and the tread is the wrong size, I'll try this part above.
