that's what I thought as well........................thanks for the info. now I gotta look for supra springs

 

The rear SC springs won't fit over rear Supra shocks anyways.

 

I was told I might also need new shock mounts. Im assuming I can replace them with lexus shock mounts and still use supra shocks/springs. Or can I also use supra mounts?

 

You can use either sc or supra hardware with the sc/supra springs/shocks. Only difference is the rear supra springs taper at the bottom. The top is the same so you can re-use your sc hardware.

 

So it would prob be cheaper to use supra mounts/shocks/springs

 

Most likely the supra parts are cheaper, but the rubber mount may have a stiffer compound.

 

stiffer as in harsher ride? I want better handling but not lose too much of the Lexus ride

 

Yea I'm not sure. For all I know, they could be the same. Check to see if they have the same part numbers.

 

Hmm indeed. Ill see what I can pull up

 

Don't worry the Lexus ride will still be there....its just going to feel less bouncy and a little more stiff on the turns which makes for a more sportier feel.

 

So let me clarify. The Supra TT Shocks and Springs are a good combo to swap on the SC's? It will give me a decent drop and a better ride? As far as hardware...what did you use Eric? Stock mounts or did you switch them out for something else?

 

Oh yea they are a good combo for sure. The only thing I would say is if you want a little more of a drop you will need to get aftermarket springs for the supra like the eibach pro kit I got if you want to get as low as I am. And now at the height I'm at the ride is very good....no body roll and not bouncy like stock. It feels more sporty to me and I like it. Next time we meet I can drive you around so you can get a feel for it. I believe I used the supra mounts to put it in. That metal ring inside of your engine bay that really tightens the suspension was my stock SC one but you don't really need that to bolt the suspension on to the car. You can pm Matt real quick and ask him if it was supra or sc mounts to fully clarify for me since he helped me to put it on my car.

 

Thanks...Yeah im starting to look around for some parts for when I eventually get new wheels.

 

Awesome....let either myself or matt know if you need any help in finding some parts and we will try and do our best Always more than willing to help out.

 

Nice car. To me thats the perfect drop. If it rides like you say it does, then that a good combo.

I kinda wonder how those struts would do with the Tanabe springs ? Do you think it would be even softer ?
