Hi all.

Well I've finally decided what to do with my 87 turbo. Kinda go all out I guess. It does not make sense to me as a daily driver, just a weekend fast/fun car you know?

Sooo, I'm going to buy coilovers, which kind I am not sure. Trowa, if I remember correctly is running Tein Flex, but told me that they were not very pratical for everyday driving. Too low. Some models of the flex are electronicaly adjustable from inside the car, using servos. But the model for the Supra is not, something about the stud not being long enough.

Could this be modified??

The idea of being able to change your ride while cruising sounds cool.

I would rather spend a little more than a little less. This in ways could be a sort of group project car as I go along, Taking in and factoring in everybody's opinion.

Who else run's coilovers, or has? Any, I mean any advice I'm sure would be helpfull.

Let's here the options everybody.

Thanks, Kevin.

Hey Kelvin

I do have Flex, and they are not too low per say, cause i mean they are adjustable LOL You set the hight to whatever you want, what's impractical are the Edmonton roads which are so crappy. And you can get EDFC for the Flex, i've seen pics of it done, even thought it says that they are not supported, although i don;t think $400 is worth it anyway. As far as other coilovers, i heard JIC FLT-A2 are really good as well but more expensive, there's also a cheaper set made by Tein for MA70 Tein SS, really cheap compared to other coilovers, HPF also has a bunch of oher ones like Cusco and Kei Office but i never heard anyone using them on MA70s...
PMed you
