yo long time no visit dudes...damn i forgot about this forum and i just remembered...
well i need some help.
my car is a 2003 camry sportivo. and i want to lower it. a friend has asked penrith toyota about the sportivo springs for camry sportivo models which lower the car like 15mm-20mm. it is $357 and installation is like $400 what the?
hell no...
anyone seen these springs in action before? and how does the car handle and look?
i've got like $450 so i can buy my springs and ask my dads friend to install the springs for me...i'll give him $100 
yeah i also don't have money for new shocks...and these springs claim to work okay with the stock sportivo shocks.
so any other cheap quality brands of springs i could get? i want a lowered look with better handling without getting new shocks, so i guess a 20mm lower is the max i could do.
thanks for any help dudes

hey dude,
i reckon you should get some kings or whitelines, they would be in your budget. I got kings in the front and whitelines in the back of my sv21,( did it myself so all up i paid $200 for the springs)ride feels much better now. lowered 20-30mm. check to see if they stock em, i reckon it would look sweet.
Or give Kmac a call they can make springs to suit your exact needs, if u want cheaper then u can try jumboz they quoted me $128 a pair to make 2" lowered springs to suit my car
cheers

yeah i've checked out king springs already. super cheap auto told me $70 a spring...low front and rear. but i don't know how low it is. the website just says low and ultra low and stuff.
a friend told me that my car would be bouncy if i don't get new shocks when i lower more than an inch or something. but the toyota sportivo springs say a 15-20mm drop and the suspension should be stiffer or something.
hmmm

i got lows and it lowered the front bout 25mm, super lows would be round 40-50mm or something like that. I reckon you wouldent have to change your shocks that soon as you car is basically still new, but the shocks life span will shorten.
mine on the other hand is past its age
