coilovers

[thomllee1981]

does anyone know if the d2 coilover stes are made exactly for the starlet or just made universal?

 

[sx_turbo]

made for the starlet dude.

 

[Toby@ToyTuning.com]

As above made for the Starlets what do you need to know? We sell both the normal and inverted type and we also sell K-Sport which are made in the same factory.

Thanks,

T

a way of affording new suspension as cheap as i possibly can! lol i dont work and mine has blown out shocks 1 front 1 back from when i bought it

 

[thomllee1981]

also do i need a panhard rod if i put coilovers on my beat up baby?

 

[sx_turbo]

get a job then lol

on a serious note, the ksport and d2 are the cheapest.

i was joking mate, i'm sorry i offended.

my dad was the same as you had to give up work for 2 years to look after us 3 kids so i know where your coming from

again i apoligise for any upset, it was meant as a joke.

 

[thomllee1981]

dont worry bout it
just had it rough lately
last thing i was thinking about this side of new year was suspension when i need new alloys as well!
not to mention the other parts i want to try and get as well!

and i didnt give up work i was made to after a car crash which gave me minor brain damage.

hope to go back in the new year though then it will either be mod away or buy another starlet and give this 1 to the misses as its an auto.

sorry to hear that dude, fingers crossed for you.

if money is tight, you could just get some standard shocks for an ordinary uk spec starlet, they will last at least 6 months with lowered springs.

well that seams like a waste id rather drive it bouncing like jelly and save the cash up

yep i agree

 

[thomllee1981]

cheers dave but you are still kinding looking over £200 past what i can afford

that would be why im looking at 2nd hand sets

 

[sx_turbo]

also as regards to second hand sets i got a set of buddy clubs from yahoo japan, and by the time i paid all the fees and the customs charges they only worked out £50 cheaper than the d2's.

it might have been cos i went for buddy clubs, but worth bearing in mind fella.

if your looking for a second hand set in the uk then that would be better.

also does it have to be a set of coilovers?

i ask as there is a set of these available :http://www.toyotagtturbo.com/showthread.php?t=1655

i have heard good things about these but apparently are on the harsh side.

just trying to help you out dude.

 

[thomllee1981]

coilovers no it doesnt have to be but the mounts in the front are going as well so thought maybe the best way of going thats all
