Interesting, I drove Toypowers car today, no idea what he's suspention is (he don't know either). He imported his car from Japan where it was used for drifting. He has a very still rear suspention and relative soft front suspention and that things rear is loose.
I didn't play with it since I don't like playing with other peoples car but if you're going for a drift only car, I suggest for fun trying to go the other way around, put some stiff springs on the rear and something idioticly soft on the front, I think the car will go nuts Greetz, Bastiaan "mux213" Olij Moved down under, no more hachi |

Guys this is a great topc! I am in consideration what to do with my suspension and this realy helped me a lot. Great job!
I was talking to Zax the other day and said that I was going to buy this shocks http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/KYB-GR-2-...9691QQrdZ1 But he said that if I am going to rebuilt and tune my suspension, why not do it right. Put Koni AE92 front with coilovers and Koni AE86 back with custom made springs... Going to do that in spring... I'll post some pics on of my work, try to contribute this topic Go on!! This is great stuff 2 Mux213 great info! Also, this would be good to put in sticky... SNO-MO-BIRU project started- CHIRO |

mrgud,
Sounds like a very good plan. some day we need to figure out what sorta info spring makers need to make springs and post some info for most common springs that don't overly lower the car or something.. much more cost effective.... As for making this a sticky, I think I'll put a link to this thread in the technical FAQ, problem we have with the technical forum is that we get to many stickies to easily so we try to grab everything within the technical FAQ Greetz, Bastiaan "mux213" Olij Moved down under, no more hachi |

i'm just wondering, when do you have to extend the panhard rod (after how much lowering). And since ae has a solid rear axle, lowering the car messes up the geometry of rear suspension big time doesnt it? i mean you put rca's up front, but what about rear? And is there a danger that the rear axle might crash into the chassis if lowered too much?

I don't know those shocks... Bilstein is normally hiQ stuff, though. IMO you need bushings. Other than that it will be a pretty nice setup

TRD shocks are all intended for use with shortstroke shocks.
