    Parts are less expensive for it too so proper maintenance is a little easier on the budget.

    this is quite true actually, especially 8th gen parts are cheap and easy no matter, new, oem or parts from scarp yard. I am just wodering the other day, do our car come with factory lower spring option? ( like newer rolla?)

    They aren't old enough yet to be in the regular yards most likely.

    thanks for the info man, since everything not OE replacement for suspension in Hawaii require special inspection and a special permit ( recon), i think i will forget this plan for now. Not until i move lol

    I wouldnt think so. If i were you, id just paint them black so they couldnt say anything. and if they ask why you car is low, be like "my suspension is shot".lol But if you are moving to the states, id wait till i could get coilovers.

    Thats could work hahahah, but not working some cops side if they really want to bust you car or a serious inspection. I think this is my plan too, as soon as i bring the car and my KYB's suspension life is over, time for coilovers when move to states, which have more road for my car lol . ( maybe height adjustment one)
