MK3 Supra Coilovers on UCF20??
My buddy was running MK3 Supra coilovers on his UCF10, he just filed the holes that the rear top hat slides into, and they work great, I was wondering if anyone has heard anything about if they fit on UCF20's. I haven't found any useful info from searching. I found of set of Cusco MK3 supra coils for $150 locally and I'd like to pick em up.

weight. if you plan on drifting it i'd go with a bigger difference in front/rear rates otherwise it'll be pretty twitchy esp. if you can't compensate with more sway bar in the front. (only a rear bar is made for -98 cars.)

Orido's Aristo was running 22/20kg spring rates. I've found a few sites selling coilovers recommend 18/12 for SC300 and MK4 supra (similar weight to my car), and 18/12 for JZX100/Cresta.

gut the car then take it to the scales and figure the weight out, the LS is naturally front heavy, and when you gut it you're generally going to add more weight to the front. the 1JZ isn't exactly light and will add even more weight to the front.
i'd give a call to the engineers at Eibach or Hyperco and hear their take on it, sure wouldnt wanna guess....

how exactly do you plan on getting it down to 3200lbs
someone fully gutted a car with only a drivers racing seat and it was 3500
even if you took out the windows hood and trunk your not there,
best of luck though

So its possible to run MK3 supra coilovers on a UCF20? Would you still be able to drop the car really low on them? Im just curious about the threaded part for adjustment, cause the Supra seems like a lower car from factory, so is there less threads on the MK3 coilovers than ones for a UCF20?
