While im so happy with the performance of my newly set up suspension. This Supra caught my attention. It grows in me everytime i drive it. Track parts are coming to max out this new platform.

How long have you had the Supra? From what I’ve read, it’s an amazing track platform.

we have this for only a week. We tuned it , catted down pipe and lowered it with eibach springs. The car feel so much better than stock springs its more compliant in cornering. We are looking for 500whp for the tuned. Wing and splitter arriving this week.
I encoutered supras of my friends in the track and they are fast in the corners, i will see this Nov. 5th if the Isf new 20/20 springs rate can keep up coz i dont have the supercharger anymore.
The Supra is a tail happy car, it snaps easily in the corners. Feels better than the F stock. and specially the interior and tech. Tuning is way better as well.

The significant difference i feel with this upgrade is the steering response became quicker. Its more precise especially in the corners.

Default RR Afco Coilvers

I recently acquired an isf, and started modding and picked up what I think were exactly what you had in terms of the RR racing coilovers with Hi sprung Eibach springs

The setup is amazing on track and in the canyons... Very poised and no body roll

The only issue I have, is that because it's more of a daily versus track car (1 day at Laguna since I got it) is that when I am on Freeway, large bumps will in result in my bouncing pretty high... so if I hit a say a dip, it will sort of launch me and I'll hit my head on the ceiling

Pot holes, small bumps, etc don't have any sort of issue and are very compliant.. Just the large bumps and dips cause the issue

Is this your same sort of experience you've had with this setup?
