I'm going to buy some springs and struts now. Beacue I found one of the rims I was going to buy used to have a crack in it, so I ended up no getting them. I was thinking of a kyb gt2 and eibach set up. Do I need anything else besides the spring and struts? If this question was asked many times before I'm sorry. I looked for an answer and could not find it.

Thanks
Boris

Well go all out and get an upgraded front sway bar and adjustable front endlinks.

It depends on the fact if you will be making changes to the handling/stiffness of the swaybars quite often. For daily driving and occasional spirited ones, I don't think its needed, but that is "MY" opinion. Someone else may think otherwise.

SWAYBARS FTW.

Just hold a stock supra swaybar in your hands. You'll understand why an upgraded swaybar is imperative.

The majority of the swaybars for the front are non-adjustable. But just look at those wimpy stockers in there dude.

MDC sells them for 125 a pair, and its like the only place I know of that sells them.

Well actually he has them made and then sells them.

Aiight I'm mostly going to do dd then have fun in the mountian once in a while. So front sways are a must? what about rears?

If you upgrade the rears you better get the mounting tabs reinforced or you will break something. Since the Supra was meant to handle I would just get a stiff front end and leave the rear end stock.
