Just installed Tom's Advox coilovers
Just a quick review of the Tom's suspension I installed on my '99 SC400 today:
Install was a snap as usual, only annoying part was trying to make it all sit level after settling.
It is almost as comfortable as stock ride, but corners noticeably better - I did notice the rear is much happier to slide out in hard turns
Overall I am happy for a daily driver setup... it makes a good compromise between comfort and handling. Honestly, it is how the car should have come factory in my opinion. I am a little spoiled by my SC300 having a 10pt cage and HKS suspension.. that car moves as one piece where the 400 has a little looseness to the chassis, but what can you do
Now the hunt for wheels continues...
Here are a couple pics of the end product:

Thanks all, I purchased them from someone who imports clips and got the set with one of his containers. There was some question of what they were for (Aristo/Supra/Etc) and if they would fit, but they bolted right up. I think their full price is a little over $3000 and I believe Carson/L-Tuned is the USA Dealer.
Dejacky, I'll take a pic of them next time I have the wheels off (I am actually going to raise the front 1/4" and lower the rear 1/4" so it won't be too long..) If you are just curious what they look like, here is a pic from Tom's:
