Default Supra Tein SS on SC300: Pics Wanted!

Im picking up a set of Tein SS dampers for my brother's 92 SC300. They are made for a Supra. What I wanted to ask is if there is anyone here who has a picture of their SC with Supra Tein SS dampers dropped to the lowest setting. I couldnt find any on the search so please dont tell me to use the search feature. Thanks!

I think the Supra and SC coilovers have the exact same part #'s across the board, including the SS...not positive though.

The Tein S.S. on my car is for a supra. Springs are much shorter so when installing make sure to put the car down slowly and that you line up the spring with the upper mount.

Mr Happi's car looks pretty good on the Supra Tein SS. But is there anyone out there that has a picture of their SC on this suspension dropped (I mean slammed!) to the lowest setting?

i dont have any pics of mine but when i installed them i only went about half way on the thread on the shocks cuz if i went lower the spring was starting to get loose with the car being on the ground on all 4
with 19's x35 it had about 1 inch gap between fender and tire



for SS, good bang for the buck
so far 40,000miles strong
