Eibach coilover kit $360(all 4 corners)

How are you proposing to do the rear?

[BEVANI]

http://forums.celicasupra.com/showth...rear+coilovers

should sum it up

[CrUZida]

I'm not seeing any rear coilovers there, just an adjustable rear spring lower seat?

[BEVANI]

and the point of a "adjustable" set up it to what?....

yes the shock is not inside the spring nor is either attached to one another but it is the same principal?

you could say i worded it wrong.... but in my books its the same thing... each to their own i guess but it sure as hell beats stock springs

[CrUZida]

Coilovers are simply that, coil over the spring. The factory front setup is a coil over setup. Its just not adjustable.

As for that rear setup, its pretty cool, but pretty pointless IMO.
The effort vs outcome doesn't really pay off.

South man, Kambah. Iam just getting my AE86 back on the road at the moment after a further thousands spent on it
And you?

[BEVANI]

KAMBAH! good choice bro! will have to meet up for sure!

[JoJo]

Done any more work on the beast broz?

[BEVANI]

[wilbo666]

From personal experience I'd try and get that intercooler up at least another 2 inches...
