Default (SC300 Springs) + (MKIV KYB AGX's) = ?

I have Espelir springs made for the SC300. Will Supra KYB AGX's work with my springs? I did a search and it seems like the front may work, but the rears may not? Does anyone have experience with this? Thanks!

The fronts are the same, but the spring mounting plate on the Supra AGX is higher than the SC's. This would raise your rear end quite a bit. You really need the Supra rear springs to use the AGXs. And cutting the springs isn't a good option as you mess up the spring rate when you cut them

On my '93 SC300, I'm using Eibachs (for the SC300) w/Supra AGXs. Rear end height is unchanged (from using SC struts), but the spring seat is substantially smaller in diameter. I just cut the seat off my old struts, and it fits perfectly on top of the Supra seat. I tack-welded mine, but it's really not necessary (the pressure of the installed spring will hold it in place). Fronts are direct fit.

HTH,
