So far Hotchkis has the drop I want..

I currently have the TRD's now, the freaking left rear side is sagging like grandma's ***** and it's about 1/4 inch lower than the other side! I sent TRD a letter with some pics but I never got a reply, it's all good, I don't like TRD's drop anywho!

a friend from work has the Hotchkis and his rear end is sagging! What the heck is that about! It certainly doesn't look like any of the pics I have seen here. Dang! Well maybe I should go with German made! H&R baby!

Here's my tC. I put S Techs on it yesterday and today. It was quite a project all by myself. It would've been near impossible if I didn't have the spring compressors and the breaker bar I rented from Autozone. And to make things worse I found an impact gun in my basement while I was on my last spring.

Nope, brand new. I don't hear any odd noises when I drive, so I think everything's okay.

Thanks. It handles like it's on rails, the ride is a little on the firm side, and the grip is insane. The best improvements came from the new tires and the rear TRD sway. The coilovers just gave it a little better attitude (and lower altitude) in the ride height.
