Hello!
Update In Europe comes the spring! Next time i will start the next mods
Yesterday comes the Supra Eibach springs from USA, for 80 dollars bought
and in very good condtion!

i tested it , and no shift problems
SPEC Clutch fits pefect

in the last weeks i had no muc htime to do something, but my car stand up straight! i installed the eibach supra TT springs on the eibach shocks on the top groove (original position).
here some pictures
ready to change
left side eibach TT, right KYB Supra TT OEM Spring
After removing the rear wheels, i installed new centering ring, fits much better as the old one
My cat "Jimmy" checks my car
Front springs left oem supra NA (i think) and right Eibach TT
first parts for a adjustable sway bar link
with modified lower strut support to have no 15mm lower on the driver side. the driver side damperholder is 3mm more to the center of the car and the lower arm is 2mm shorter as on the passenger side.
first modifcation, 5mm more to the wheel with the holder, 2nd was 4mm up, and the car stands straight! yeah!
looks perfect, drives perfect! i ordered in a small shop longer screws in M10x1,25 to have the complete thread to hold the holder down on the arm. before, i will weld the discs and paint it, to looks original and have no chance to shift.
also i will install this week the TEIN upper pillowball supports
i orderd Brembo Discs and TRW pads for the BBK
today, i cleaned the LS calipers and painted with VHT paint in gold and transparent
i hope, i can tomorrow paint the rear calipers and change the rear upper supports
