Those are nasty springs. That code is for the progressive TRD spring which is the same spring as the Eibach Pro-Kit springs. Really soft and not worth it.

Don't bother buying them, they're useless. Get some TRD Linear springs, if you have a car setup mostly for track, get 8k front and 6k rear. If you have a street car I recommend something like 6.5 front 5.7 rear
Go with what you're comfortable with, but if you want to drift, do not get progressive springs, too much body roll. This guy can help you out with getting some GOOD TRD springs, his name is Max http://forums.club4ag.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=97337 Last edited by cfrost; 04-01-2005 at 01:47 PM. |

for beginers use 6.0 kg up front
4.7 kg in the rear also does pretty well on the street want to get a little bit more wild get 8.0 front and 6.0 or 6.5 rears you have to use the right shocks as well I run 12 kg fronts 10 kg rears for my daily driver hahahaha Max |

Guys, what TRD part are these:
48131-ae801-80 (8.0kg/mm front?) 48231-ae801-70 (7.0kg/mm rear?) 7.0 rear seem waaay to stiff for intermidiate skill drifting? i'm way past the beginer stage and far from any pro/advanced...only have ~ 6months burning tires Last edited by etxxz; 05-13-2005 at 07:34 AM. |
