I have an MKIV TT suspension that I was going to install this weekend. I was definitely going to install the front first and drive to let settle. If it has a nice rake from back to front, then I was going to keep the factory SC rears. Looks like I will not have to even test it because I definitely do not want the front sitting higher than rear. If you are looking for a quick fix until you figure out what you want to do, you can always get some spring braces from autozone for a few bucks. It is a ghetto fix, but may be worth it short term. Looks like a large screw that wedges in between the coils to give a little more height. Overall effect will probably be less than an inch. Good luck.

i like the rake, im keeping it

how are the intrax btw? on fleabay there r these tein h-tech...gold ones...those any good?

VJ RC51

The intrax are stuff, i think some of the stiffest on the market. They are lowww tho and the car would need a camber kit, but i like the drift look. I got em used, and very happy with the quality. I had new eibachs on another car a few years ago, junk. The car drove and handled like a boat, i hate progressive springs.

Agreed. Progressive springs are a no no.
I had interx on my supra and now on my SC. Yes they are low, but ride decent and no cluking noises like the eibach progressive springs.
But you know how people think, as soon as you ask about intrax springs many will start bad talking them even if they have't even used them. Intrax in trash Cheap junk Get super expensive jdm stuff , blah blah blah

You have no idea how much i hear that with my SC because i do not order uber expensive jdm name brand parts. I got my metal upper rad hose for $10 at the local muffler shop, and cut the factory 2jzge upper hose to use for connectors. I powdercoated it chome and there u go... Ill probably get flamed for it cause its made from a mufflershop and not an uber expensive jdm company.

If you really want the front and the rear to have the same height, here's a sacrificing tip: cut from 1/4 to 0.5 coil of the front. Cut 1/4 coil first, and if it's still high, then 0.5 coil for the total cut. You shouldn't go any lower. I've cut mine for 0.5" on the front and it just sits perfectly. I don't feel any more bouncier than before un-cut. I guess that the front is too heavy to have any bouncing. Also, half coil might still be in the handling of the Tokico shocks. I'm using Tanabe/Tokico components for the SC300 although my car is a SC400.
