Suspension Options

Post by GHOST »

Second opinion on my rear knocking is that my damper(s) need replaced.

I either but two standard Toyota rears for £80 each or I buy a full set.

But what are my options for a full set? I don't want it slammed (I already get some arch rubbing with my 9j ET35 rears) and I don't really want to spend over £500 on a full set as I've spent a small fortune on the car on the last few months.

I used to have Koni adjustables on an old Rev3 but I can't seem to find any after a quick search online.

Cheers,

David

I've got a set of rev3 billies that I want £100 plus P&P for.. They were working perfectly when removed only took them off to replace with coilovers.. :thumleft:

If you can afford it defo go for the billies
They will be much better than the stock setup you are used to

Cheers guys.

Do the bilsteins come with springs Draven?

It'd be payday when I can take them though, end of the month. How much to post them to Cumbria?

Yes the bilsteins are as they came off the car with springs and all. I don't mind waiting to till payday i'm in no real rush. I'll work out some dimensions and get some costs for you on postage.

Another option for you is i have yellow billies i was going to install but ive now got coilovers so they will be for sale in next few days or so..
I also have 30mm apex lowering springs to match or standard rev3 turbo springs to go with.

If youre interested pm me :thumleft:

tein ss is pretty good for road and track but likely to be more expensive than the bilstein options.
