Not sure if Tanabe's are linear, but I will ask. Here is their description of their manufacturing technology:

Quote:
Sustec 210 Technology: NF210 Lowering Spring

All of our coil springs feature SUSTEC 210 Technology. Sustec 210 Technology is a series of manufacturing methods developed to create a stronger, thinner, and lighter spring using only high tensile steel, without adding additional elements that could affect quality, durability, or price. "210" stands for 2100n/m of tensile strength, which is the highest strength ever acheived in a coil spring. The Tanabe Shiga factory in Japan is home to some of the most advanced, unique coil spring machines and processes in the world!

hmm
im sorry, but im not all that experienced, or well, knowing of springs
all i really do know about is what i want the exterior and interior of my car is going to turn out lol

but these lowering springs sounds like a good idea :D

when buying lowering springs on the microimage website, its says:

qty: 1
price $168

sorry if this is a noob question, but that means i need to buy 4 of those, right?

what if you buy the springs/shocks form trd sparks and go to toyta
dealer and have them install it? will the car still be warrantied?
(live in las vegas)
on trd sparks site , u see two lowering springs whats the better one?
