Default Tanabe NF210 Lowering Springs, Anyone using these?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33582

Found these online, the spring rates are posted unlike the eibachs i was looking at.

The tanabes say its a soft ride like stock i am assuming, anyone using these or any feedback on spring rates? I read in another the thread that the stock spring rates are close to this setup, just want to be sure before i pick a set out.

I did have eiback from a supra on another sc, the ride was decent, but if i can lower the car and still have a soft ride, that is what i am looking for.

Thanks in advance.

Maybe try doing a search titles only for "Tanabe" or "nf210".
Here is one result:

Do a search for the rest.

i did this however there are not to many people who post photos of these particular springs on the forums.

I have a 99sc, with 17 inch twin turbo wheels, i want it to ride well for daily driving, my supra has coilovers and i do not like the ride for daily driving.

I have had a set up supra eibachs on my old 99sc, it rode okay, but wanted to find that perfect setup for a daily driven sc.


thanks for the response, does anyone have a link to some photos?

I've put about 40K miles on the NF210/Tokico Blues set up. Could not be happier. Todd at TM recommended this and he did the install. I've gone to 17" GS wheels and this car rides better than just about any I've ever ridden in. Here's an old link with some photos:

I run these too. They're great springs IMO. I'm looking into some Tokico Blue's too.
