You didn't know what you were doing back then.
You were a confused little boy.
And $50 incl. postage.
Should have a few more sets available soon.

Search, there are plenty of pics in this thread, Yian's ride thread, Norb's threads and even my members ride thread, and the reality is they are way to low.

What he said. Buy lows if you want to look fooly sik. Buy standards if you want the car to handle. Buy something else again if you want the car to handle better (I don't think there's anything off the shelf though). Both lows and standards are too soft IMO.

no idea but when i got springs for the rona they didn't specify just got the hd standard ride height one, but could order 1,2 inch lowered as well. 160 bucks a pair i paid, i have found them pretty good as well.
By the searching on the net i found out they are an australian company located in qld but don't seem to have a website. Mainly seem to do lots of 4wd stuff but make coil over springs and general car stuff as well.

I feel that the biggest issue with king lows is the rear camber. Sure, they could be harder. I'll see what happens after fixing the rear camber on mine and decide.

You don't want that book as it only covers the American 5M-GE Engine and the electronic transmission if you wanted to buy it for that... I have the book and it is only good for some body electrics troubleshooting and other body related topics. But for that price, I'll go and buy a Haynes book as it's just as good but also covers the 5M(GE) and 7MG(T)E.

the originals dont exist anymore./ there is a guy in the US who makes up similar ones, as well as the american style ones. he's off celicasupra I think?
if you want good springs, you should have gone in for the coilover group buy
and there's a place in melb that does custom rate/height springs for not all that much more than kings. message giantomato, he knows who they are (i think)

I also recommend you try and get some blank rotors if you can find them, and just get them drilled at 4x114.3. I ended up getting mine pre-drilled (because that's all that was available without ordering a custom set - $$$) and redrilling them. If you do this, check with your engineer that he thinks it's ok!

okay guys, i can get this exact design made up, for $65 inc postage anywhere in aus:
(obviously the stripes are evenly spaced on the full sized version)
PM me if you're interested or for more details. Later on I can try and get the US 'Supra' Billboard design and the UK designs if you like.
These designs are 99% perfect size wise. i measured it all up myself, but will do a few more test fits just in case.
I'll put a thread up in for the sale section.

Are you saying its an actual template? Not just an image file on your computer?
Well of course i would send it back after making a copy. You say its a tad small? How small? I was thinking maybe adding "3.0T" to the end of the supra so it would be "Supra 3.0T" billboard fashion. I was thinking of making up a few if the price is right and seeing if anyone would be interested.
