Front end 2 low..

[chris717]

well my front end is way 2 low, i just wanted to know if i could lift the front a little, what do u think...
WHat should i do

[MassSupra89]

Get new springs...

[TurboFreak]

Sell it.

The supra can never be too low.

[chris717]

i got it with cut springs its really low, what kind of springs do you think are good? and cheap

[TurboFreak]

OHH well in that case I bet the ride is horrribleeee and possibly too low.



Eibach, lowers it about 1" from stock

[chris717]

eibachs are expensive, well the ride is acutally good on turns and stiff
but i hit everything!!!!!
I have Tokiko shocks, with H&r's what do you think about that combo???

[AF1JZ]

So do you have cut springs or H&R? Make up your mind.

[TurboFreak]

I'd get H&R's but if your complaining about being to low... then they might not be the best choice.

[chris717]

h&r's are cut!

[AF1JZ]

Ohhhh...Well, if you are on a budget, get some Arospeed's. They are a 2'' drop and ride nice. When I bought them before I bought my coilovers, I paid like $150 shipped from their website.

[cuel]

If you had a good set of h&r's, I'd trade you for a set of stock springs. Then you wouldn't hit anything. Damn near drive over a cinder block :)

[chris717]

i love my rear's looks just right..
only problem is the front, i know stocks are for rally

[Loki]

h&r's are cut!



Holy fawk, pics?


I'm super happy with how my H&R's sit and wouldn't cut them. They are low enough as is.

[tlo86]

Cut spring wow i love it :)

get stock springs until you can afford good ones... if anyone asks why the front is so high just tell them "its for drag racing, gives me +5 horsepower"

[RazoE]

shit, my car scrapes with stock springs & front lip, but it sucks cause it's riding 4x4 style..:(

[chris717]

yeah i know my power steering hoses hit all over the ground.....

[NA86.5]

I got B&G springs from Horse Power Freaks they are a 1.6 drop all around.

[CRE]

So are you riding on H&R's or H&R's that have been cut down further? There IS a difference between cut springs and lowering springs.

If they're just regular H&R's you may be able to find someone looking for a trade... or perhaps find some spacers.

[chris717]

h&r's that have been cut.. i got it like that

[tlo86]

i use bilstein with eibach,.. not quite 'cheap' but i am happy with them. my next upgrade would be a coilover if i ever do it.

bilsteins give me a modest drop as does my eibachs and with 18's i dont want to go any lower honestly. maybe half a CM... :)

after i installed them ,first time i dropped the car with the suspension/wheels so imagine it just slightly shorter heh

im not a fan of the people who just say "slam it" when it comes to suspension.... so cut springs.. you have to get rid of that junk.. heh

[Big Wang Bandit]

Damn!

I have H&R's up front, I love it, I don't scrape bad, but Cut H&R's? Badass!

[BorHor]

If you want some stockers I have some for free.

[chris717]

that would be great...
i never seen the supe on stock springs in person...
how does it look?
When could i get them

[BorHor]

They are high lol. but you can use them until you get another set of springs. then throw them out haha.

PM me if you want them

[chris717]

damn, i need some supra owner's help.
could someone please look at my car when they have time???

[BorHor]

If you were closer I probably could.. but way to far for me. Than again I don't know much.

[chris717]

what you know everything...
someone? anyone?
:cry:

[cuel]

This is how my car sits on stock springs and Bilstien struts on the lowest notch.
16934
Its a little lower than stock, but I can still pull up to a parking stone and not worry about tearing the front end off. Its almost perfect.
I was thinking about getting some lowering springs, but decided I had better things to spend my money on ;)

[da89soup]

what you know everything...
someone? anyone?
:cry:

Ok show us some pictures???

The whole idea of cut H&R's confuse me??? They sit about as low as you need to go in the front to begin with. Kinda makes me wonder if your shocks are backwords???? If shocks were backwords on H&R's your front end would be damn neer on the ground. Take a picture of the spring as well so we can see what you have going on there.

My car on H&R's!!!

[BlackMKIII]

Here's mine with the stock setup.
http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa60/BlackMKIII/100_1775.jpg

Pretty damn high.

[chris717]

lol love the cop behind your car
i will get pic's a soon asap.
i don't know, i got the car like this from a friend from L.a
he gave me all the papers from H&R and tokiko's.
he said he cut them.....
p;s. i got it for 300 bucks eveything worked

[tlo86]

old look with wheels same size as stock

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e239/tlo86temp/P1010052.jpg
after with 18's bilstein/eibach. its a tad lower as i mentioned before because i took pic the first time droppnig it etc.

big difference though with the stock suspension.. and thats with the 89+ springs which are a bit lower than the pre 89's

300$ for shocks and cut springs? if the shocks arent dead from the cut springs... the springs are worth almsot nothing because they are cut :x or did you get the car for 300? if so then thats not that bad :)

[chris717]

yeah the whole car :)
