i want to lowered my sedan s down about 1.5 to 1.9 inches but still want to keep the feel as it now (i mean not bouncy) any idea? S Tein Springs plus TRD Shock?

my friends think this combination is bumpy (this is what i have now). myself, i want it to be a little more stiffer/bouncy. although, you can really feel pot-holes and cracks on the road with this combo.

i made a review of the TEIN, TRD, and Tanabe parts that i have. you can read it and see if it further helps you.

My 2 cents on those setups...


Ok it was not on a yaris but rather on a Echo Hatchback (970kg)

I had koni yellow with s-tech spring that set up was way to soft

then had some tein ha/ss those were great only thing even 4kg an 3.1kg springs were still to soft... in my taste...

now the yaris is a bit overweight compared to the echo..so i'm just presuming that for my taste the tein basic will be to soft

this is why i'm looking more towards the megan coilovers...


overall tough Tein is a very good product to have on your car

Do you think the Tein Basic coilovers will bounce and be rough for everyday driving or do you think they will be ok since their kind of soft? Unfortunately, there is a lot of uneven pavement, cracks, bumps and potholes around here so I hope tha Tein Basic wont make me bounce around like a rubber ball or yoyo...
