Hmmmm......i need new shocks bad, and i was thinking of getting the KYB's, but i was wondering if they could handle the drop of coilovers if i was to get them, i thought i heard once that they werent supposed to be dropped anymore than like 2".....just wanna know if this is true or not. >confused.gif>

3rd gen ST205 3SGTE - Alive and boosting.
Yea the KYBs are OEM so they aren't going to last as long as say Konis. Does anyone know how good the Tokico's are?
i will let you know as soon as i put them on, still waiting for them >smile.gif>
A camber kit may help. I know it will help on the life of your tires after you put the coilovers on it. I know sprint makes the camber kit for our cars, not sure if anyone else does tho.

Follow this link and it will tell you about the camber kit.
Camber Kit

The strut bar will give you better handling.
will that fit on my car with the kyb shocks??

Actually, the camber on our cars can be adjusted without a camber kit. I took my car in for a four wheel alignment after I lowered it, and they said they were able to adjust my camber without a kit.

New Toyota project coming soon...
Our cars can handle up to a 2 degrees in the camber w/o needing camber correction plates.

so i dont need a chamber kit then??
Tokico does't make parts for our cars. I called them a while back, and they sent me to Koni
