What is the difference between the Super Strut suspension on the SS-III and the MacPherson on my GT. Which one is better and can they be swapped??

Well i might be able to tell you soon, the difference in driving. I had the ST205 with Superstrut suspension, (which needed parts replacing when i had it as they where out at 60k miles). This cost me the best part of £500, which consisted of 2 camber control links and one bottom arm. Anyway have got rid of the GT4 (found it to be a little unreliable and very juicy on fuel) and am on the look out for a GT ST202. So when i get hold of one i'l be able to see what all the fuss is about.
If you wanted to change to super strut i think you'll need the following parts, new subframe, 2x no.1 bottom arms, 2x no 2 bottom arms 2x camber control links 2x new shocks and springs. From Memory (could be slightly wrong) new from toyota Subframe £???? Bottom Arm no 2 £280ea Bottom Arm no 1 £120ea Camber link £90 Shocks £ 150ea Thats £1280 and that doesnt include subframe!!!! |
