Lowering a little more

yeah i was gonna say...^

^^^i knew about that,i bought a strut bar and lowering spring for a 7th gen and put it on my corolla and it fit perfect.

koni struts r nice but they r to expensive i could get nice wheels with that money id rather stick with getting tokicos

i heard the TRD struts fit both the 7th and 8th gens [=

which trd struts

If you cut one coil off the Stechs there will be no problem, trust me I have had mine for 2 years on stock struts.

don't cut springs. what do you think this is? you think the guys at tein get hot metal and just coil it and ba-da-bing! you get a lowered spring?

no, a reputable company such as tein put a lot of research and development behind this. cutting the spring will flaw their design.

It seems a lot of people on here don't know the basic ABC's of car repair and proper modifications.

i've read every single hyper rev since i used to work at a place that was an authorized hyper rev dealer. you're going to find too many things that could fit your car and you wont be able to find it, in fact, most would not have heard about it and you'll become even more depressed. i would recommended not looking at those magazines unless you just want to see what whats available but you dont really want anything.

Also AE86 is really popular even today therefore you probably had better luck. not much stuff for 7th, 8th, 9th gen corollas for the US.

i have to agree with drunksaru...

and in addition, instead of heating your springs or snipping a coil off of an s tech spring, why don't you just get rid of your car and get a civic... those lower nicely

+1

i agree dont cut your springs it's not safe and it'll void your insurance

One of my buddies sister bought a saturn off a guy who didnt cut the springs.. but he heated them up with a torch to make a cheap lowerink kit. She bought the car not knowing, the wheels were soo off alignment that one of the wheels in back blew out on the inner part of the tire. She got into a car accident and got sandwiched between two vehicles. For your safety i would either save up for a coil over kit or go with something safe. a couple hundred dollars is better than a couple thousand for a new vehicle. or better yet someones life. think about it man

i cant seem to find the red ones you are talking about
but all ive seen is this:

yeah you wont find em... i've tried looking before... no luck on my end... thats when i saw the ksports...

That's a strut bar. I don't think TRD sold many of those struts at all. I think those are custom order from TRD japan.

check out "hyper rev". its a japanese magazine so have fun trying to read it but the brands are listed in english so you can see what fits. definatly a lifesaver my my 86

ohh i got an idea. just buy bigger tires or make a wheel/tire combo with a bigger diameter. that will fill up your fender gap.

seriously dont cut your springs... if you do, i might have to do what stewie does in this video.

idk about that hyper rev statement..usually if you go to a place that has japanese ties, they know the parts. theres a shop here in raleigh that has the mags and as soon as i found a part he got it imported for me. just check the right places... and if you really need something, send the guys at phantasmusa.com an email on what you need, either nam or his brother will find the part for you or give you some great advice

Holy Macaroni shiet
