ReeceGolliker Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Hi, i'm thinking about getting some trd coilovers, just wondering who's had them and what did they think? I use the car daily on some not brilliant roads so i don't want completely solid suspension but i don't have the money for miesters. Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I had some they were really good better than my d2's Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aleximport25 Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 not sure if you know but most coilovers use the same shock and its just different springs over the range. but miesters seem to be the most popular for a daily :-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 They are good, but just be careful, there's no one over here that can rebuild them so if they go bust, chances are they'll end up in the bin. Seen a few sets for sale before that have needed a rebuild and their worth next to nothing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DavidAshton Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Consider also that any TRD coilovers will be at least 15 years old now! They were built and designed for Japanese roads not UK roads. They may be cheap now but they wont last or be comfy, may be worth saving a little longer and getting something newer and suited to our roads. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aleximport25 Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 yeah its tricky buying 2nd hand coilovers as there's plenty of people that sell fully working sets to find out 3 are knackered, but on the plus side ive found replacement shocks for £97 deliivered each :-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ReeceGolliker Posted July 2, 2015 Author Share Posted July 2, 2015 Yeah I did think they will now be old parts with not much life left, saving up for miesters might be the best option then, thanks for the help Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gorganl2000 Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 aren't trd coilovers suppose to be on the hard side and for track use? like the others said, i'd recommend meisters for daily use....very comfortable and quality service before and after sales Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ReeceGolliker Posted July 3, 2015 Author Share Posted July 3, 2015 I'm a full time student so I doubt I'll be accepted for the finance I'll just have to get saving Quote Link to post Share on other sites
