installed springs & struts (trd)

[AkUmA]

well just got home and "WOW" i love how it handles. being this is my first car i have lowered i love the look and the performance. i have pictures on a camera and as soon as i finish the roll and scan them and post them.

but i must say you can feel a big difference from stock. in the corners the car feels much better on tight turns, and the car doesnt pitch back and forth when driven hard in a straight. just want to thank david draper for posting about the struts. i was thinking about getting springs anyway but when i read his post that sold me... the spring strut combo is a awesome!!!

Glad you like them! Figured they'd work out great!

I just want to feel the diff in the shocks myself. I'm used to my stock, and now I'm used to feeling Koni adjustables from driving in the other autox cars here in town.

I didn't catch the oringinal post. What is the reason for doing the struts too? Are they just the TRD lowering springs? I was looking at getting them also. Can you get the struts outside of the full sportivo suspension kit? Thanks!

In order:

-Struts that are meant for a car with a 1" drop will dampen better than those designed for a car with no drop. Handling and ride comfort will improve.

-The struts are separate from the springs, although they are available as a package.

-Yes, the struts are available separately, and they work great!

Let me know if you'd like to order, or just order online at http://www.wctoyotasport.com/TRD

Thanks! http://www.newcelica.org/ubb/smile.gif
