Saying 5" backspacing is just like saying xx offset. It doesn't tell you anything without knowing the width. To everyone, you guys really need to read and search. You guys are all asking pretty similar questions and I don't know how/why Boris keeps telling you exactly the same thing...

I'm actually really not sure what is different if anything. As far as I know, brakes, suspension, drivetrain, etc are all the same. The only difference in the drivetrain would be the trans and diff final drives. And then if there were additional options, there were parts added for that. Like...

The kyb/eibach combo is just really soft. It's not that it's not going to be fun, it just might not make things any easier. And the stock LSD really isn't that great. People have used it and it can slide, but it is kind of like a Nissan VLSD, it may work alright for a little, but after a...

The shine car works if they only had to have half the wheels fit properly. Until there's a 10-15mm spacer in the front, it still only half belongs. The second car looks like if it were a little lower the wheels would fit really well. The last car, should look into Boris' group buy for...

Kind of but not really. What I am describing is just based on geometry and the definition of an installation ratio. The slightly progressive effect is due to the linearity of the installation ratio. What I mean is that the linearity of the installation ratio doesn't have any real bearing...

I don't know, but it's definitely not like a man. And drifting a stock supra, like stock suspension and everything? That just doesn't sound like fun. Unless you want to go out and spin out a bunch of times and do a burn out or two, then I would do a little more to the car first. I mean I...

No. Read what I wrote again.

You reset your toe after installing the spacers. It would be stupid to run that much toe out and there really wouldn't be any benefits to running that much anyway. You install spacers. Reset toe. Then you have more steering angle. It's simple and easy and cost effective and you need it...

I hate stock steering wheels. Right now we have a Nardi Deep Corn 350mm in the supra. And I have a Personal single spoke super awesome dished wheel. Since the same quick release is in the Supra and the 240, we can switch back and forth. But both wheels are the same diameter and dished...

There's pictures of the spacers in the old group buy thread for them. They just go in between the inner tie rod and the rack and allow it to travel further. Without them, drifting a supra is boring unless you like the shallow angle boring drifting. Supras don't have much angle stock and...

235/40 fits with no problem, you could probably even get away with 245/40 depending on the actual tire. I had Federals on there and I've heard some people say that might run a little wider than others. I don't know, I know they fit and there's room for more tire.

I think it's about 1" on the shock. But 1" on the shock does not equal lowering the car 1". I don't know the best way to explain this. The shock moves less than the wheel. So if you lower the spring perch 1", the wheel will move up relative to the body more than 1". If you want to move...

9.5+12 fits in the front with just a roll depending on tire size.

The rears look good. The fronts look like they could go out another 10mm.

Sorry, I measured the other night and then totally forgot to post. The top perch is stock height in the rear and a little bit lower in the front, maybe 1/8" lower in the front. So the perches will adjust the height of the car a decent bit. The front much more than the rear. If you...

I love the east course. It's a lot of fun. I need to get back out there once the supra is all back together and running again. What suspension and brakes are you running?

When I finally get around to buying a real diff, I want the ATS Carbon 1.5 or 2 way. It's a clutch type, but has nice, smooth engagement, so no unsettling like a metal clutch type. Now I would just need to find someone who can still get this stuff for me.

There's just too much crap in this thread. Matching the shock to the spring doesn't mean anything, you're missing a huge part of the equation and that is the mass. And that's assuming you know the geometry and other variables of the car. Picking the right spring and damper combination...

They're both very good, it depends on what you're going for. I like the Bilsteins because they're valved so they can handle decent spring rates and be comfortable. And there are options of revalving them down the road if you want to run stiffer springs. Konis are adjustable which can...

I can't say for sure. You could always test it. It's not hard to change the height of the perch. Try it a little lower and see how everything feels.
