Tanabe DF210 series springs Options

[celi_gt_racer]

I was wondering if anyone had these springs yet... they look like they would be good ride height. My dad ordered some for my brother's celi about a week ago and they e-mailed him and said they would be on back order for 6 weeks. I'm thinking this is just B/s cuz they can't or aren't going to get them. Does anyone know of any other place i can order these springs? It would be a great help if someone could give me a link to where i can order them. Thanks alot guys

Btw... the springs are back-ordered on this site http://www.autocarparts.com/part/1337/13

so noone reference autocarparts please... but u can go there to see the spring specs... i think the drop would be really nice on a celica

Does noone know anything about these springs? Any input or opinion would be greatly apprechiated. thanks

yea i got them, there is a place u can get them for 170 shipped but i can't think of it right now but i'll find out for sure. i've had tein and sus. tech. on my previous cars and by far these are the best, not only in confort but the drop. They'll give you 2.2 drop in front and 1.5 in back so its nice and even. i'll take some pics tomorrow.

Got mines last week. I got them for $159 shipped.

Modern Auto Performance. They are our local sponser/performance parts for the upper midwest.

I get everything through them. They can pretty much get anything for me thru them.

I have DF210's on my Celica and I love the way the car looks and handles... The only thing I would suggest is to install some bump stops on the front shocks at least b/c if you hit a big pothole the shocks will bottom out (the drop is bigger in the front that with other springs). Good luck!

I have these springs on too, just ordered a 404 lip kit... i think the car might be TOO low? Anyone have a lip kit with these springs?

[95st-celica]

coilovers are just adjustables springs with adjusting hats/caps whatever you want to call them they give a simple tuning advantage but bumpy ride
drop springs drop the car no further that what is advertised........i may drop a little more or less it all depends.

so you dont need and adjusting caps for these springs can't wait to see them pics guys

I just got this springs installed by a friend... once i left the shop theres a weird squeeking/rubbing sound coming from the rear right springs and a popping/clicking sound coming from the front? Anyone else this happen to with these springs?

[808celica]

should be normal cuz they're new. give it time and if the noise comes any louder then you might wanna have the shop check it.

Doesn't look low enough for me. I liked the TRD's - not that low though. I like my Intrax because they are lower than TRD's but I still want lower. Our cars look mean slammed. with of course the consideration of the underside.

I cut my bumpstops in half so it won't bottom out.

[mikecelica]

What are those black plastic/rubber wrapping around have the springs? Are u supposed to cut it off or ?
