Default less than 1" drops

i have no plans on racing, drifting etc didn't buy the sc for those reasons. it's more of my get out and cruise . no plans on major mods either keeping this one stockish

this may not seem worth it's doing to most of you instead of a 1" drop i'd like to acheive 1/2" instead. so far i haven't found anything mentioning it other than cutting the stock springs.

feel free to chime in

You may want to look into OEM Supra TT suspension...

Ive been wanting the same thing for the drop.

What I recommend is buyin new struts (adjustable and make sure u get the Supra TT ones, all others won't work with TT springs)

Find some OEM TT springs and ur set.

I am looking at Tokico ILLUMINA white for turbo supras

Tanabe NF Springs are pretty close to the drop your looking to achieve. 1in drop all around and springs rates are practically stock.

I agree the difference will be barely noticable---i would say go with at least a 1 inch drop.
