Coilovers Fitted

[muddyell]

I know i am posting alot of topics on here at the moment but thought it was about time i got myself more involved and let you all know what was going on and thought id start using you all for information :D

I managed to get hold of a set on Tein HA coilovers the otherday for a bargain price and had a bit of a roadtrip from Costa del Cardiff to Rubgy to collect them. I got round to fitting them yesterday and I am loning the difference it has made. My previous car was like a go kart and when i first got my IS i hated the way it handled. I have had the car about 18 months now and to be honest i used it mainly as a run around and wasnt all that bothered with it. I am now in love with the car again though. I have had a full stainless system fitted, de-cat but had a resinator fitted to keep the back pressure. I also have alot of other plans which i will be honest may not be to the taste of some people on here but i will post pics to get your reactions very soon

Anyway thanks in advance guys and your going to be hearing alot more from me in the near future and i will get some pics up for how she looks with the coilovers on as soon as i have finished tweaking it myself to how i want it

Happy to hear your enjoying your IS200 again :) im about to pick up some BC coilovers this weekend, but i have no idea what sort of difference it will make to the car other than it will be lower than the oem setup.

cant wait for your pics :D

To be honest it depends what you like mate. If you still want the lexus ride quality then i wouldnt recommend having them on a stiff setting but whatever happens it will be stiffer than standard. Personally mines is as hard as they can be and believe me you feel every peice of chewing gum on the road!!

Can handles a hell of a lot better and theres no body roll at all. Also the steerin is alot sharper/more responsive now

even at the softest setting they still are very stiff.
