TRD uses KYB Products. I believe these two shocks are the same but branded differently


KYB Super Special 4 way Adjustable


from what edophus said TRD only use KYB Specific TRD Cartridges in which I can vouch for him since trd coilovers aren't rebuild-able like tein, megan d2 and every other coilover out there for our celica's...

the only short stroke cartridge available for our celica is KYB specific struts used on the TRD Coilovers. The only ones that I know of that we can use on our celica's are KYB GR2 which are cheap and affordable. Another non adjustable kyb shocks are the KYB SR Special. Even those are around $175 per shock and at that rate you'd be better off buying adjustable koni yellow's...

oh also found these on fensport http://www.fensport.co.uk/Parts/Model_14/Category_2/

Another thing I would like to research is the dampening rate for all the different kyb shocks available for our cars...
