SUSPENSION EXPERTS: Toser Coilover System

I purchased these Coilovers a while back and they have been just sitting around as I have been too busy to install.

I was hoping to do some research but search is still not functional. I was talking with njmaxseltd as well as chris'smax, but was hoping I could pick up some further insight from other members.

I am looking to find out specific parts that SHOULD or NEED to be replaced with THIS coilover system. Also can I still use camber bolts in conjunction with this setup? Any Information that can be provided would be greatly appreciated.

More Pictures:

Thanks.

Best Regards,
JP

Uses stock front mounts, so I would suggest buying some camber plates.. Although I doubt you plan on taking it to it's low limits where it would need the plates. I also wonder how low it actually goes.

Similar design to JIC, but non-adjustable and questionable struts..

How many threads are you going to start about the same thing? The other one had like 10 replies but you decided to start a new one?

Big D: If you were to refer to my other thread you would see that I have asked the moderators to delete, and if you were to read through the posts they only speak of camber plates for the most part. I started this thread is hopes of gathering information more specific to what I was looking for and to generate more replies.

So to answer you question 1 thread, but technically 2.

Thanks Jason They seem to be good quality.

All your questions were answered. You don't need camber bolts or plates unless you lower the car more than 2". These will just go in as far as I can see. You might have to replace the seals or other stock parts but only if they are in bad shape.

spring rates? If they were originally for Japan roads, they will be stiff as hell

All i can say is these things seem to be high quality. As teddi said you can adjust from the spring or from the bottom of the strut and has a 24 way adj dampening. And yea they are a little stiff, but hell for what I paid I would say it is a steal.

Wuz up,
I was bored at work today and was trying to find some info on these coilovers and I ran across a picture of hayame's coilover setup. If you look at them they look exactly identical to the toser's. The only thing is that they don't make them for the max. Thier setup is made with tockico struts so maybe that is what our's has. Just wanted to let you know in case maybe you ran across some info as well. Just pm me if you can find anything because this is really buggin me.

Chris
