tokico blues and eibach spring dont cost 600+. they can easily be had for 350 bucks.

i bought my first set with 1000 miles on them for 150 bucks. sold it 1.5 years later for like 325ish.

why do you think that using tokico/eibach will give you camber problem and lowering on coilovers will not?

do you even know when you need to use the camber kit?

you dont need camber kits. in fact there is almost no lowering scenario that requires it unless you want to have absolutely factory setting, which btw are not what you want anyways.

you can run as much as 1.5* of negative camber without having any negative effects on tire wear and it will definitely help handling

Thanks for a good tip on the camber, and yes I do know what that is and how suspension works I had a couple of supras before and moded **** out of both of them, dont judge me by my post count!
If you can sell me a set of tt eibachs and tokicos for supra for $350 i'd buy them from you in a heart beat on the other thought, Id rather have used coilovers than used shock sping set, its ok if they need rebuild I have someone here in indy who can do it
I cant judge them untill I get them, install them and drive.

post count has nothing to do with it. if you made that same comments and had a post count of 10,000 and i had 40 i would still write the same thing.

there is no such thing as "respect" based on post count. if youre wrong or dont know what youre talking about post count doesnt mean anything(not specifically referring to you).

Cant wait for a weather brake so I can start wrenching, impatience is killing me.
