The NF's from Tanabe aren't that much stiffer. You can get away without having to get struts. Look into a complete suspension kit from TEIN or JIC MAGIC

 

Yeah, after researching a little more, if I go with the NFs I dont' need to replace the struts. Plus more than 3 people already told me that the kyb struts for our car is pratically OEM replacement so why spend $400. If I go lower then a complete replacement is the better idea. But I'm never going to race my ES and I'm not an aggressive driver, I just want to get rid of some wheel gap and have a little fun with long curvy roads when they arise. One of the guys from NELOC is gonna help me put the springs in (hopefully) for a good price. I'm gonna try and sweet talk him with some food.

 

The rears can be a pain. Have to take the rear seat off which is fairly easy. But the strut tower is near an airbag module on the rear so be careful After lowering, look for some wheels that have a nice offset so it fills the wheel well from the top and side to side. I finally rolled my fenders today, flared them a little bit. Going to perfect them later on.

 

I thought Tanabe didn't make NF210s for the ES330. There website only has it available for the 02-03 ES300. I'm trying to figure out if they have an application for my dad's 2004 ES330.

 

Coilovers!!!!!!!

 

Wow, back from the dead thread.
