if your buying coilovers for the drop you shouldnt be buying coilovers. Coilovers are for adjustability typically.

 

Better yet, I want the better grip on the road!

I'd still buy a set of Teins over these.

 

werd....pick up coils with ajdustable dampening. period

 

Oooh, I'm sorry if i look at the cosmetic aspect of coilovers compared to my lowering springs if i dont have 1.7-2in drop capability, i wouldnt give a tihs about adjustment. i would still have a fender gap that i couldnt live with after paying that much.

 

Well, I dont find my TRD drop to be bad. Actually, outside of slam it ot the ground kids, most people that see my car in person think it is perfect. My wheel gaps still look like they were cut out to fit the wheels, not all out of proportion like a car that has been dropped too low. And as far as handling, I wouldnt go much lower at all.

Again, you buy adjustable coilovers for the benefit of adjusting for performance. If you are simply buying them to slam the car, you are wasting your money.

 

bingo.

i think coilovers are all about dampening adjustability, i personally can care less about height adjustment.

 

I guess if someone is 100% into the show scene they would be nice for slamming the car (if they like that) at shows but making it driveable the rest of the time. But that doesnt seem like it would be worth it to me... but that is not my thing either.

 

I don't even see them?

 

oh, found them.

 

coilovers are for people that drive hard not people that want a show car.

 

OK Just to clear this up a little. These are not available yet. Why this is I have no idea. If you are wondering who makes thing I would have to guess that progress does. The reason I say that is because they also make the coilover set up for the Celica and the Matrix. So I would say that's a fairly good guess. If you're really interested in a set of coilovers then I say go for the Progess ones.

whatabout the 1s with no dampening adjustment option?

 

Aren't they just re badged progressive coils?

 

Aren't they just re badged progressive coils?

 

just like everything else trd rips

 

They don't rip. They pay for it, and resell some of it with warranty. I got my TRD's cheaper than the eibach's

 

they are for people like you lol.

I dunno, coilovers shuld be percision suspension components for racing while springs are for show and budget. You just want to look they part buy springs you actually want to do some racing buy some nice fully adjustable coilovers. But as with everything theres still junk out there on the market.

 

And how do you figure that?

 

I strongly disagree, street-class coilovers don't need to have damper adjustment if they have proper spring and damper rates. In fact, I think the current crop of adjustable coilovers for the tC probably do more harm than good in terms of handling versus nonadjustable because most of their owners have no idea what they are adjusting and how it relates to the performance of their suspension. The fact is NONE of the coilovers available for the tC are for track use, they're all for street performance and fashion; none of them have separate adjustable compression and rebound rates and the travel (stroke) is too long for serious track use.

 

these cant be the same as progress... dont the progresses go all the to a 3-4 inch drop?
