I love my GS4 but wish to upgrade the stock ride. I've seen a lot of talk about the L-Tuned set which appears to be performing well for most folks. I bought my LCB and STB from Carson's Toyota as everyone else has, and they had a pretty good price for the L-tuned. However, I noticed that Tein adjustable coilovers cost between 2-3 times more, which actually seems pretty reasonable for an adjustable performance suspension.

I'm looking for a set that's adjustable from softer than stock (just in case I need to drive cross-country or somethin' all the way to racing stiffness for track days. I noticed a few members like RacingAristo already use coilovers... how is ride quality (at a reasonable setting) compared to stock and compared to L-Tuned? What does adjustment entail (do you reach into wheelwells, put on a lift, remove wheels, etc.?) How did you come to choose the model you own? (And where did you guys get em? )

Anyhow, this is my first day with ClubLexus and this board looks awesome; I think I'm gonna be spending a lot of time here. Advice is greatly appreciated!

 

Welcome to club lexus. The board is very kool.. Hay enjoy the board and the different members..I have none of the suspension stuff on my GS400. But I wanted to purchase STB and RTB for mind. One day I have to save some money...

 

G-Force - The best setup would probably be the Tein CS's. These start at about "stock" and go to medium stiff...they are pretty pricy ($1400 or so) but I think it's worth it if you're concerned about dampening adjustability....
