Hi guys,

Anyone considered buying the weld on coilover kits from rally supply shops?

Then choose your 40mm bilstein inverted dampers and springs to match.

You'll need a good fabricator and a bit of mechanical engineering nouse.

I did this for both of my previous Celica GT-Fours.

Bilstein inverteds make most coilovers feel like Fisher-Price. I used to run 14kg/mm front and 8 kg/mm rear springs and it was nowhere near harsh....just extremely controlled.

Off the shelf is obviously a lot easier though!

John
