drop pics
Can someone post an upclose pic of the wheel in the wheel well of a one inched dropped sc? I'm debating on whether or not to drop my car and back at nopi last year i saw a dropped sc and it really didn't look all that dropped to me. So before i actually fork out the cash for new springs and shocks and what not, i'd like to see if there's a noticably difference.

I have eibach springs on mine and 225/55/16 tires. ( I know I know, I'm looking at getting new tires and rims). I can fit my hand in between fender and tire (at the top center). I'll try to take pics tonight when I get off work.

The Eibach springs made for the lexus give you a 1in drop. You could also get some Supra eibach springs that will give you a 1.5 in drop. A bit lower if thats what your really looking for.

chris... are u sure those supra eibach springs will fit my 93 sc4? i'm looking at the one's they're selling at tirerack right now and it's a 1.3 drop in the front and 1 inch drop in the rear. the cool thing is they're cheaper so if they'll fit i'll definatly go that route.

Don't need the supra struts. When you're getting Supra suspension you need to get the Supra springs.

yeah, they will fit. but you have to use supra struts. I bought mine from someone who had a sc400.

Hey ForNGoods,
If you drop your car 1" on Eibachs, it's about a 1 finger gap in the rear and a 2 finger gap in the front.
I think when I lower my car, it's gonna be 1" in the rear & 1.5" in the front.

Has anyone here actually done the Supra TT shocks and struts? I just dont want to put these on and then find out later they screwed up everything else on my suspension because they arent made for SC400's.
A couple more ?s......will the Supra TT sturts and shocks fit both the SC300 and SC400? Reason is if you look at Eibachs....the SC300 is a different kit from the SC400.
Second....directQL....you confused me....the KYB's....if I am getting Supra springs, would I need the KYB struts for a TT? Are your KYB's for a Supra?
So I assume ride and all that stuff is gonna be the same as the Eibachs for the SC...only difference is a lower drop in the front?
Finally...one more for you QL....where did you get your KYb's and Eibachs from?
Gracias.

I don't know about SC400. If you mean you need to get Supra TT struts for SC400 so you can get the KYBs, then it's quite possible, I just don't know.
Now, I got the KYB AGX for $99 from Tirerack.com. It's the only place I could find that had the lowest price. Tirerack.com buys them in big amounts therefor they get a bigger discount from KYB. If you know a Tirerack.com rep then you can get them cheaper. I got the Eibach Supra TT kit for $250 (shipped) from my buddy. I think it was a great deal.

just a question. Would the KYB AGX fit springs from a non turbo supra. I have my springs but i seeds shocks. I am not sure weither they are to a TT or N/A. The box ony says 93-98 supra. Also on tirerack they are $99 for front and $99 for the rear. Not $99 for all 4. Thanks for the help.
