ok ive been searching for adjustable suspension to fit my AE111 with super strut suspension, ive been told only trd do them, this is ok apart from the price is $5500 (the car cost $6000) so that is way to much, does anyone know other brands that will fit or do i have to resort to lower springs

I believe it is possible to modify the SS housing to fit a non SS insert, talk to the professionals as i am sure it is not much more reshaping the flat section on the housing to a more rounded shape :lol:

not easy but not impossible!!

According to http://www.trdsales.com/shop/product.asp?catcode=272 it looks like yours should retail for closer to $2400?

the correct part number for the ae111 coilover set is 48000-ae190

48000-ae110 is for the non height adjustable sus set, for the ae101-111 s/s. its been d/c but you can still get it in individual parts

TRD part numbers dont always relate to what they fit, just cause its got ae110 in the part number doesnt mean itll fit an ae110...

My bad, looked at the lowering springs page and saw that AE110 was for the AE111 model and thought it must have been the same for the adjustables.

Give autolign or sas suspension a call and they can build adjustables to suit your car

ah sas, i know those guys, ill have to go see what they say

by **Bazda** » Sat Oct 09, 2004 9:46 pm

go for the SAS ones they are really good,
my mate has trd ones in his ae111 and if u try get that nice low look they just bottom out real easy!

SAS ones also have adjustable strut length!! means u can also lower the car by adjusting the whole strut and making it shorter, therefore when trying to go low the car wont bottom out.

thinnk they retail for $1800-$2000 +gst

ok spoke to sas today and they say no can do
looks like my only option apart from spending heaps on trd products is to possibly get custom made?

do u NEED adjusties?

by **rallymazda** » Wed Oct 13, 2004 7:10 pm

well i dont just want to lower the car i also want to upgrade the suspension to the best i can get

surely a new set of good quality shocks and springs, bushes etc, will give you just as good handling?

correct me if i'm way off with this theory

by **Bazda** » Wed Oct 13, 2004 7:26 pm

if u get shocks and springs u will always have in your head 'damn i wish i could adjust the height'

by **DRFTIN** » Wed Oct 13, 2004 10:57 pm

and with the 111's it doesnt seem possible to get them nice and low and still have handling/travel
the lowered ones i've seen are never level either, always higher at the back
