I have a set on my sc300 and they have great adjustability. I don't understand why yours is not lowering any further. I thought the supra coilover was supposed to go about 1 inch lower than the regular one for our cars.

most likely you are adjusting them wrong. when lowering it, the threads should be going into the bottom sleeve.

They might be 1gen Aristo/GS coilovers.

That sounds to be exactly the case cause I have heard the same thing about GS coils bolting up but not lowering an SC.

Pretty sure he's correct, I'm running MKIV HA's and my rear tucks almost to the rim with 4 threads showing.

maybe
the chasis code should be on the bottom of the struts. my tein basics have the supra chasis code on them and they might even say supra cant remember though. i would check that.

^, If they are made for the JZA80 Chassis, you should have no issues.

yeah i know that, as I have a Supra as well. They are off a JZS147 Aristo
I havent gotten them in the mail yet, so we'll see. The threading goes a little lower on the HKS as well
