Default What is required to install Supra (mk4) struts/springs?

Will this bolt right on or are the lower control arms required?


I have heard that they are compatable but cannot find merchants advertise the compatability.....


any thoughts?

yes they should bolt on as long as you got both the mk4 strut and spring and not a combination of sc/mk4 stuff.

Will the stock Supra Turbo strut and shock lower the SC400 at all?

True, a real problem here and mods do nothing about it. I'd vote to lock and delete redundant threads like this.

There was supposed to be sticky or FAQs for the SC but it never appeared.

i definetly think the forum could use more sticky's and How to collections. seems like it'd cut down on common questions, even though they will still come up .



Brad, alot of the suspension i read up on said they didn't work from the vendor when they actually do.

I Installed some Tein Basic coilovers for a MK4 on my SC recently, they do not come with top hats so i used my stock SC ones and everything fit perfect.

Can we start posting pics of the finished project?

I've searched and it seems as though a bunch of people have went this route. From what I read, it's about a half inch drop. Can someone post a pic up of this install?
