yes, 20-30mm
depends on the individual vehicle (ie how much crap you have inthe boot!)
but the norm is 30mm

ok, lets put it this way, most of the feed back iv had on springs iv sold say their cars were lowered 27-30mm.
i have yet to have anyone say it was only 20mm.

like most companys TRD has to be careful, if thy say it WILL lower EVERY car 30mm, they open them selves up for problems. hence the wide range.

not one person has come to me to say TRD springs are crap and dont perfrom as advertised.
that help?
:D

FYI, my ae101 (non s/s) hasnt had any weight loss and it was bang on a 30mm drop

Mr Revhead,

do you have any TRD springs suitable for an AE92 corolla?

I am after some springs for my rally car. I think about 160lb rears and 210lb fronts. Got anything suitable?

If anyone else can help please let me know.


Cheers
Go hard and get amongst it!

newby, TRD have discontinued all of their springs for rally AE92. We're working on a supply of alternatives at the moment.

Chaos, we have boxes of TRD race (coil over) springs here in stock. Ex AE82 race car. These are a peculiar diameter though and many are now obsolete. Contact me for specs.

cheers
