Dampers(struts,shocks)

panda_3ight_6 · 12-03-2003, 08:17 PM

Ok i need ideas here. I got my AE86 and need dampers now. I was thinking Tokico HTS 45-Way, Or some Cheaper TRD Race Dampers 8 and 5 way.. or just revalving the stock struts and shocks then welding a coilover deal on the front. I'm Figuring Hard spring rates 6kg and 8kg. and cusco upper mounts and cusco roll center adjusters.

my friend uses Tokico HTS shocks with TRD springs. 8kg and 6kg. Handles great.
