a70 coilovers?

**supra_cam** · 13-09-2007, 01:26 PM

I've been looking into getting coilovers for my ma70 and not really sure what brand to buy. D2 and HSD look good and fairly cheap (about $1350-1400) they have pretty similar specs. People say Teins are also good are they much better than the cheaper brands? Btw their going in a daily driven car, but in the future might see some track time (when the 1jz goes in).
cheers

D2 are a pile of shit. If you're thinking of doing any track time on them, slap yourself in the head.

HSD are a quality setup for the same price roughly.. Tein will cost you more but is a bit better quality yet again. Your best bet on new coilies is to go HSD HS Series for daily driving with occasional track use. I run Cusco Comp-S's and they're ok, a little stiff for street, but still acceptable.

PM dori_dori on the forums, he is the HSD Distributor in Australia.

what about just replacement suspension for your Xa70 Xz2X, is it work getting "lowered" springs ie king units and just run of the mill shocks, or is it work getting the coilovers ?

go the HSD's you cant go wrong!

dont ever put D2 and HSD in the same sentence either...its like comparing shit and chocolate...with HSD being the chocolate

second hand coilovers are around the same as new normal struts, you really cant compare the two.

ive got KYB Buzz Spec coilovers in mine, its stupidly stiff for the street, that said, they are adjustable, and i have them on their hardest setting
