30mm rca and coilovers
Is anybody running 30mm RCA's and coilovers? I have been looking around and have only found 2 companies that make coiloves that achieve stock ride height. Tanabe and RS-R. I dont want the VIP look just want the firmer springs and shocks. This is where the 30 RCA has me at now. Thats about the height I would like to keep.

i asked because ive been trying to achieve something similiar. have a smooth ride while having it stay flat when turning. im on rca's and sway bars. love it. i also have bilsteins on to have a sportier feel.

MODS so far:
LS400 brake swap
cusco front and rear sway bars
Figs caster arm bushings
Figs lower front control arm bushing
Figs Rear toe link
Figs rear track link
Figs steering rack bushing
Cusco front subframe brace
EBAY front and rear strut bracees
Ultra Racing rear brace (front, middle and rear)
Future plans:
coilovers
Figs rear lower control arms

I do actually have swaybars from cusco. Im still looking for a little more responsiveness. I do autoX during the nicer months. I am in the process of turning the GS into double duty car.

how are the cuscos? i have trd's but the rear sway isnt what i thought it should be. im looking at gettin that figs rear bar.
how is that rear lower control arm?
so what youre doing is having the car lowered for events but you dont want to swap it out to raise the car back up.

ahh. gotcha. my gs4 doesnt see any scca/autox stuff. only the other cars. i thought that we might be going for the same kind of build

The main goal with the coilovers is to put around town with the dampening turn down and ride height up and then drop it down and firm it up on the weekends.

I think is pretty good. I using the outer setting. I ran with the inner setting at first but it had to much oversteer. I also have the FIGS rear swaybar links. Its possible with correct the oversteer with your shock setup. Right now I am limited to spring with 191k on them and worn out shocks. The rear toe and track links are amazing. Those alone make the rear end feel more connected to the front. Im sure you know the feeling going around a tight corner and the front and rear of the car seem strangely disconnected. It really helps that. Add in the rear braces and front the car moves as one.

i have the braces underneath the car. i guess its time to get those strut braces as well.
so the toe and track links eh? im replacing the bushings on those with the figs stuff this weekend. now i cant wait.
im gonna see if i can get the ride and response i want without gettin those arms.

I would also replace the rear knuckle bushing where the arm goes into along with the bushing that the camber bolt goes into.
What braces are you running under the car?
This is not my car but this is pretty much all the pieces I have.

If you want to get serious check out solid subframe bushings for the rear.

I haven't gone that far.
