Exclamation GS300 Suspension Upgrade

I have called the People at L-Tuned, and they have told me the L-Tuned shocks and Springs will lower the car by 1". But they have no info on how much stiffer the L-Tuned Shocks/Colis are over Stock.

Does anyone know if L-Tuned shocks/colis are stiffer, and by how much.

Second....I have looked at the pricing for TRD and Tom's Coils/shocks - Are they worth the high price being asked?

Thanks - Chaotic Dave.

They're not THAT stiff. I can describe it as alittle stiffer, but there's NO sacrifice of comfort. Very neat. These are probably the softest springs/shocks you can get for the GS.

TRD and TOM's coilovers are very expensive....... I don't know if they're worth it, but TEIN coilovers are much cheaper and you might want to take a look at those.

Default Tein HA

KNKGS400:

If you could get me pricing for the Tein HA coilovers that would be great. Do you sell them?


Im wanting to get rid of the body roll around corners..HAHA.

I love my Lexus, but I also love to drive....well a little aggressive while cornering.

Thanks - DK

Coilovers will help, but TRD sways will help more.
