worth getting the aligment checked after any suspension/handling mod. just about any tyre place will do this

My GT's spec isnt great but I think it handles superb, its down to the TRD LSD I think, gives so much confidence and as long as your on the throttle the grip is immense, no understeer or lift off oversteer etc.

I have Tein coilovers, Cusco panhard rod, and OEM front and rear strut braces and the diff. Using Yoko Prada tyres, really good in the dry, going for some R888's next.

EDIT- decent alignment makes a world of difference aswell

mate I have posted the amount you need for each, there are only 1 engine mount bush & 2 for the gearbox. ring larkspeed nice bunch there.

2 front inner control arms & 2 outer control arms, then 2 trailing arm bushes =6 in total.

then drop links toyota will order them all for you, or the super flex ones in the link above all come in a pack

job done, all links to websites are above mate. lazy arse:p

So do i jut order 6no of one type of bush? do they all fit everywhere?

no mate, its all explained in detail in the previous post, just look for the bushes I have stated

2 inner control arm bushes
2 outer control arm bushes
2 rear trailing arm bushes ( all TRD & available on RHD japan as shown in the link )

contact larkspeed about the engine&gearbox mount bushes ( they will sort it ) & toyota about the drop links ( give them your chassis number ) easy as that dude and get all the drop links.

The coilovers i have are shit and not adjustable.

I was told I have anti lift kit, but im not sure.

I don't mean any offense, its just worth knowing what you have already :)
