well i think you see from the pic that it gets the car pretty low. And they are springs not a full coil over suspension. All they do is lower the center of gravity and obviously a more stronger spring in the first place. You will see the car more stable from the lower center of gravity and stiffer springs. But you wont notice a night and day difference because its not coil overs but you will notice a subtle difference.

Actually, it is a coil over suspension. From the factory. Buying the pieces seperate or together does not change the type of suspension you have. MA70's have SLA coilovers. Or double wishbone as Toyota wants to call it, instead of SLA.

^I was referring to the tokicos that its not a aftermarket coil over setup. And the factory suspension is limited to the amount of adjustments possible. This is why people people use aftermarket coil over setups to have those ajustments that the factory suspension lacks.

I was unaware that Tokico had springs.

I'm sitting on Tokico Blue struts and Ehibach springs. It lowered the car about .5 inch. I'm not happy. I want more drop. I still have about 2 inches between tire and fender.

It isn't your fault you the internet gets polluted with bad terminology and tech info in the automotive world. So no problem.
