Dang! It's much cheaper in Southern CA. I was going to do it myself, but not after I found out it would only cost $220! It took one tech about 3 hours on a lift the first time.

The same tech only took 30 minutes to redo one front corner on another visit. Probably because he was already familiar with my car.

 

Car looks great Stew!

I like springs that compliment stock suspension geometry if possible (ie. not slammed). With the adjustable dampening of the F Sport pkg it becomes even more important, IMO.

Care to share details of handling/ride changes with the new springs?

An AWD drivetrain is what I prefer for my climate, I'm curious about the RSR springs coming out too.

 

Thank you! When I went to pick it up and saw it sitting there, I really liked the look.

So far, I cannot tell any difference in the ride from stock.

 

Stew4HD, what shop did you use in Houston? I took mine to Carboys off 59 and they only charged me $350 to install my Sport Springs. I used them again to install my JDM Fog light kit as well.

I used First Tire and Automotive here in Greatwood. I won't be using them again

 

That looks Ballin.!


Tell me guys , ive got the GS450H F sport, do you think with the added weight of the hybrid system , i could still run these springs.?
Plus where would i get them , i cant seem to find any on ebay etc,..

 

If you go to Tanabe's website, you can do a search for dealers in your area. You may also try contacting Nigel from (Nigel-JDMParts.com) or Luis Salazar from (Carson Toyota - L-tunedparts.com). They are both able to order parts directly from Japan.

 

I ordered mine from Redline360.com

 

Tried that , however cause Im in Australia, i need to have a US postage address.!

Did you get the underbody Brace they also do .!?


Cheers.

Richie

 

No, I didn't get the underbody brace. Is that a sway bar?

I just ordered spacers, 15mm for the front, 25mm for the rear as per suggestions on here. I picked mine up from Redlne360.com, same place I got the springs.

 

If you live in SoCal i would go to see Tommy...he is AWESOME!!!
