kaminari and TRD springs

[CeLiCaJoE]

well i have the front so far (cant afford the rest yet). anyways i still have the the stock springs and from the looks of it car is pretty low already. i scrape once in a while with it. now the the question is if i have the TRD springs install would it be worse for me given the TRD lowers the car 1.5 more than the stock ones. am i just looking for an headache? thanks for the input guys. sorry for the long post

TRD only lowers your car by 1.25 at the most.... Ask Redline, he has full kam kit with TRD... and I got TRD on mine and the drop isn't that low but noticeble.

Hey man,
I've got full Kaminari with TRD springs and the drop is weak ---- you are in NY though and I know how terrain is rough in some areas. You can TRD it and be safe though -- Just navigate certain areas a little slower and use CAUTION. If something looks too steep or too bumpy adjust to the terrain. Go diagonal (one tire at a time) over steep inclines and speedbumps. Not too fast either. Hope that helps. Peace.

thanks namja and warpig for the inputs.

here are some pics of TRD springs + Kaminari

the pics were taken shortly after they went on, so they are now a bit lower since the springs have settled.

Do you have a gt or gt-s because the trd drop is perfect with the 16" wheels (although 17's would look better. :))

i have the kam front (with WW sides and rear) with a TRD drop and it's not too much. it could actually be a little more in the back but i think it looks fairly nice and keeps you pretty safe from scraping. i have pics of it at http://photos.yahoo.com/codygts if you wanna see how it looks.
