[ashley newbert]

Does anyone know whereci can get 60mm lowering springs from, I cant find any, the only thing I know thats that low are coil overs but people want silly money... Any ideas

Your only get that low with coilovers mate, 40mm is plenty when it comes to springs ( lowest you can get ) I had 40mm PI springs was nice height and ride was brilliant for springs

But I heard that starlet Sr are already lowered by 35-40 mm so it wouldnt make that much difference, im notnsure if im right its just something I heard? And JLF88 I thought about going built not bought but I want quality suspension

[JLF88]

Don't blame you, me too. I also heard any lower than 40 will need a change in shocks

[jimmymac101]

Sr's are lowered 15-20mm lower than the standard starlet na's anything lower and it's had the springs changed

I may be wrong but that's what I have been led to beleave, I had sr springs on my NA it lowered it a little but not loads then moved to PI 40mm springs

So how much are these pi springs and are they any good??

[Gainzy]

I had the Tein's and the ride height was still unsatisfying save up for coilovers it will make so much difference

Id use coil overs but there silly money to buy unless you know of some??

[jimmymac101]

Coilovers are worth there money anyday, even at £500-600 brand new and id never go back to springs ( unless brought on a car )

However the pi springs are £100-130 depending where you get them I thought they were great for the money but it's all personal preference

I've heard tein say 50mm+ but never go that low :-/

Get some 2nd hand BC's/MiesterR's for £450~ Just wait for a set to pop up or a Glanza breaking with some on.

[ashley newbert]

Ok guys cheers, coil overs it is (y) better start saving

[Gainzy]

I wouldn't buy second hand one's if you manage to save say £400 might aswell save the bit longer for brand new with warranty as you never know how they have been handled, but that's just me lol

[ashley newbert]

Yeah makes sence really cheers pal!

[RobSR]

Teins are not what they say they are. Defo not 50mm. Like mentioned Pi ones seem to be the lowest, they say 40, but from what ive seen and when they settle its abit more. Not bad for the money atal.

I'd listen to this advice and this is how mine sat with the pi springs

As a short term they are amazing for the money but coilovers are in a different league and transform the car

The pi set up doesnt look bad!!! Is that on 50 or 45 profilr tyres?? It really fills the arches
