I was going to do an engine swwap, but decided a complete suspension overhall would be more suited to the way I drive.
My current plans are Springs : Tein S-tech Shocks : Bilstein Shocks Sway Bar : Suspension Technique front and rear anti-sway bar Strut Brace : Cusco front and GT-Four rear Arm Bar : JIC lower arm bar So how good is this setup? What else should I do to make it even better? |

stocksways can be lived with but upgrading to ST swaybars makes a nice difference and for the $ is a good investment and it really doesn't make a harsh ride...coupled with TEIN SS coilovers its going to be effective and ride well for daily use and mild track use.
the rear strut bar at 65$ from toyota or ~$15-$20 in your own materials is a very SMART buy and bushings arn't considered bragging rights... bushings make significant differences in the way the car works. Few of my friends have them and didn't notice anything but increase in handling stability their stuff doesn't rattle at all!? |
