Best SC400 springs/shocks/coilovers?...opinions
I have done quite a bit of research, but have had no luck. I just got an SC400 and the body roll is terrible, it needs new shocks and while I'm at it, I might as well swap out the springs too. Should I fork over the cash and get some coilovers? I've had very good experiences with good strut/spring combos in the past, but I dont know what works best with these cars. Any suggestions would be of great help.
I have been contemplating the purchase of some Tokico HP's and Eibachs...not sure how many people are running these, but those of you that are, please let me know how you like them. This will be my first official mod on my car, aside from tinting my windows.

tokico hp & eibach are a waste of money. you will still have massive body roll with that setup. your probably better off just getting better sway bars. if you have the cash get coilovers.

I tried some oem Supra springs/shocks/swaybars just to get a basic upgrade, and haven't upgraded from that as it works quite well for me. Do search if you need more info.

I was going to go the Supra spring/strut route but came across a set of used coilovers. With the car lowered ~1½" and the coilovers set at the stiffest setting the car sticks like glue in the corners. Granted it is a much stiffer ride than factory at that setting. At the softest setting you wouldn't know the difference from stock until you came across some bad pavement.
The seats are the problem now. I slide all over the place during hard cornering. I actually need to update my signature to show the car at it's current height.
