Cool

As do k-sport.
DS are the best! =)
I think there is a 4th company that makes "real" coilovers for the Camry platform, but I forget the name. Maybe someone else knows?

Most import & small car suspensions are mainly the same thing. Most any spring will swap & some struts will (As long as it is the same general type) without much work. So coilovers will also fall under that category.

Now, finding multiple coilovers to test fit & modify, or someone willing to buy them one at a time & try would be the hardest part.

I knew about the k-sport, however, i didn't like the ride quality and the stability very much. My girlfriend had it on her `98 es before selling the car.

Also JIC (on my car right now) and I'm not sure if tein came out w/ the "super street" version for the solara yet.

B&G has been offering them for the ES for quite some time now.

there used to be a seller on ebay that ran them.

wow , " without the teeth-rattling ride" I like the sound of that! lol

The description is pretty vague, It doesn't mention anything about pillow mounts or damping adjustments and by the looks of the picture I don't think it has those options.

btw, tein ss for solara have been out but don't know if anyone has tried them on the ES yet. d2 also carries coilovers but don't get them they suck!!!!
