I dont think those espelir springs will be of much use with that kind of lowering though. Get yourself some coilovers for the front...

Well. The plan is T3 coilovers in the front, and TRD in the back.

At least this is the beginning and is probably way better than my 19 year old stock springs. + i think i got the quite cheap Smile

So i can use ae92 koni shocks in the front?

Can somebody make guidelines with pics how to modify shocks to short stroke? And also what fits what, and whatnot Big Grin
