Here are some before and after shots...ride quality is a lot more stiffer, sportier, I LOVE IT!
My setup is 18x8.5 fronts with 245/40...rears are 18x9.5 with 275/30...It kind of rubs when I do full turns but I think that it's my plastic lining that's loose...I have to check it out later...

After front:


Before rear:

I heard about your Espelir pickup

looks great man. i'm glad you like it!

do you think you can do a comparison between the espelir springs and your experience with the eibach setups?

Thanks for the compliment howie...actually, these are stiffer than the Eibachs and I like them a lot more. The Supra NA setup I had before was just way too low and I rubbed everywhere I went. This is really...the perfect drop IMO...

cut the lines that run vertically out of the center lower grill on the white one (yours). leave the horizontal lines going across.

Yeah, that's one thing I forgot to mention to the bodyshop before they painted it. I'm going to have to take it back and have them touch those lines back in black.

TrboDANDEE: The front rotors are Supra TT rotors from iRotors.com.

legendary : The front shocks are stock. I know I should have upgraded but I was so anxious of finally dropping my car again. I'll be ordering Tokico's by summer.

Thanks for all the kind replies...

The white car looks SOO much better with the 97+ front bumper! I think the PS that OLT did is a good idea, prob something the shop could do 1-2-3!!

Good job overall, how about some staggered 20s for that black bruiser now???
