Coilovers was a whole story of its own... I had done it hte way it should be done, but i found out they were way too low, looked great, but was undriveable.

As they were adjustable, with a longer spring, I managed to get the car up to a reasonable height, but my shocks (the famous Tokico HTS, specially imported from Japan) were topping out on every average bump.

So as I was lucky enough to go on a trip to California last fall, I brought some TRD race springs home, and they are now on, with the Tokico with a 60mm spacer underneath them. That setup works great and handles extremely well, and the looks are also good. Now so far I have no bottoming out or rubbing whatsoever.

So that's another K.I.S.S. (keep it simple, stupid) example that works better than the fully modded way.

I had way over 2000€ of stuff I ended up not using, and thats a lot of money wasted...

Regards,
Patrick
