any has one try Nex?? they are the cheapest now, but i wonder how it feels and stuff.. Otherwise my next choice would be D2.. Cuz i don't want to spend on my coilover on the same price as an engine.

i'm in the market for coilovers and have narrowed it down to:
JIC FLT-FAS
Tein CS or Flex
Zeals

all are Supra apps of course

just wondering what are the pros and cons of each?

I'm running Tein Flex now... they are getting swapped out after this season is over.
Just not sure what I'm getting next... more research 1st.

I just installed the H&R coilovers which can be found for around $800. Fixed damping, adjustable ride height. The rears come with OEM supra bushings installed. I wanted something compliant for the street and somewhat firmer in the corners.

Rates are:

Front: 9.2 kg/mm / 515 lbs/in
Rear: 5.1 kg/mm / 285 lbs/in

Car is very grippy in the corners and feels much more nimble. The ride is also very good considering how low I am up front. Body motions are very well controlled and no bounciness whatsoever. So far, I'm very happy with this setup, especially for the price.

I'm rockin the Tanabe Sustec Pro 5's. They feel good for city driving on the softest dampening. Alternatively, the hardest dampening setting is great for the track. The car feels as stiff as a board with stock sways and no strut tower bars. Lastly, I have them slammed on 18X9, 18X10's with a slight fender roll and the stance looks great with no rubbing issues.
