On December 25th I was short of presents and decided to order a set of Tein SS coilovers for my faff, hoping to just make it with old pricing. No luck! Got a refund today cos’ prices went up during Christmas apparently. Current price of 2k is off the scale for me.
So I’m left with two options now: 1. Start hunting for a set of used coilovers 2. Modify my current setup. Which is only TRD 4 way adjustable shocks . I find 4th setting quite hard so was considering throwing a set of TEIN springs and TEIN or TRD top mounts to improve the handling. I’ve had tein springs fitted on my ST202 before and TBH didn’t find much improvement in handling. Maybe cos’ I had stock shocks on…. What do you guys think? Anyone with a similar setup? Car is not a daily driver and I enjoy hard cornering, was also hoping of occasional track days this year. BTW, I already have a Whiteline ARB, Cusco underbrace and poly bushes. Thanks! -------------------- TRD -ST205- [color="#4B0082"][/color][size="5"][/size][font="Palatino Linotype"][/font] |

Since you have a gt-four, I'm assuming you already have a rear strut bar. You can always upgrade the front and rear strut bars.
