Default What is the best Spring/strut setup?

I was just wondering what is the best spring/strut setup? I'm planning on getting some pretty soon so any advise would be appreciated.

I've read that the best street spring/strut setup for Supra TTs is the Eibach w/ KYB setup... and since the suspension is similar on SCs...

Hope that helps.

yup quick is right

if you're going aftermarket, the SupraTT KYB AGXs, and Eibach springs is the best setup for the $$$

the SupraTT rear swaybar won't hurt either

Does SC300 and Supra use the same strut, because i don't see a application for SC300 on the KYB AGX listing?

I have eibach/tokico setup. It rides pretty smooth knowing that it is a dropped car, but the best ride would be a stock setting. You want that floating lexus feeling, and u can't have the best of both. My friend drives an IS300, with eibach/TRD adjustable shocks, and even on the softest setting, it doesn't come as close as the stock feeling.

Eibach pro-kits and KYB AGX's off a Supra for our cars will fit? Or should we use prokits for the SC and KYB's from the Supra?

Call Eibach and ask them what the difference is... the spring perches might be different.
