Is there anything specific to use for the spacer? Also have you got the part numbers for the shocks? What do you run on the rears?

Fiat Argenta front ones - just re-fit bushings in the low end of the shock. They are 30mm shorter than original rears of AE86.
I made steel spacer 10mm (because I try to lower the car 30mm and I shorten the cases 30mm) and I shim using 1mm steel washers :-) I use KYB gas AE92 fronts - non-adjustable. http://rudy96.com/pricelist.htm Prices in Bulgaria (2 BGN=1 EU) Use P/Ns from here: http://www.koni.com/_cars/_products/cata...4_2005.pdf |

It seems Yellow Konis are the choice to make for dampers, but I'm getting lost on what springs to get...
What alternatives are there to TRD? How stiff are the standard springs as compared to the TRD ones? In Denmark we have the added issue of having to get something that is TÜV approved or it won't pass MOT. This unfortunately rules out all the exotic stuff from japan, homemade coilovers etc. :-( (Of course, if it looks like it's supposed to be there there's a chance it'll pass anyway) Peugeot 206 1.6 XT - 09/2003 Toyota Corolla GT Coupé - 09/1984 Yonzie - 09/1980 |

ehm, if you mean the blue Tokico HP's then that really isnt all that cheap.
You can buy a complete set of Tokico's on ebay for 180 dollars or something..and the coiloverset is 150 dollars. Divide the amount for the Tokico's by 2 and you'll get the picture. BTW, I have tokico blues on my car and wouldnt recommend them for serious performance. Disregard my entire reply if they are tokico illumina's... FABRICA MI DIEM, PVNC! |
