Definitely easier than importing from the states.

Problem is ive had coilovers in the supra & Audi and find both are too hard for daily driving.
Guess I better buy a top brand if I want to slam it but keep the comfort

What coilovers did you have in the Supra and Audi?

My friend had an older Aristo 3.0V on JIC coilovers, they felt amazing for a daily driver (and it was loooooooooow)

No price range as such - If they allow me to drop the car but keep the comfort then I'm sold

I had K-Sport coilovers in the supra and a low budget set in the Audi

Congrats on a rare color combo (at least in the States), and welcome to Club Lexus!! I'd go with Bilsteins. They are a little stiffer, but still maintain the Lexus smoothness IMO.
