Some small/boring update, got 15" Konig rewinds installed few days ago and today I recieved some of parts I ordered last year december. I am quite happy with the quality and what I paid. Only 1 of the corner light a bit crack but nothing serious. The taillights installed.

Someone got any idea if headlights from RHD would be diffrent with LHD headlights, if yes, is that any problem if I install RHD headlights on my car?

And any suggestion for installing Kouki head/corner lights on Zenki car?

[Mux213]

Only problem you may have is that certain cars have the passenger side headlight shine to the side of the road somewhat. If you install that on drivers side then you will blind oncoming traffic.

But I do not know if the lenses on a hachi roku have that feature..

Anyways, are you going to install a kouki front? I really like the zenki front much more, only like the kouki bumper. Would be a shame. The corner lights from a kouki are nice though Maybe keep the Zenki headlights?

[oldskull]

Thats what I am afraid. I hope hachiroku does not have that feature.

I like Kouki front more but still like Zenki lip and Zenki Grill. I will see what I would do.

rear lights shouldn'\t be difrent ... Only front lights are. But why buy em from abroad you could have bought em new here for 100 euro's a piece.Only the foglights are hard to obtain...

[oldskull]

Yeah I know kouki headlights can be found new, toyota dealer already quoted me. The reason I bought them abroad because I got offer for good price for the hole parts that you cannot reject it

Small update and I think better update I have done now....

I am looking for some decent shocks for a while and finally I bought Tokico Blues from Abe. They are still in boxes and still need to be installed. But till few weeks ago I saw CircuitFreak got his Koni Yellow for sale then I give me a try. So I asked him before I buy them, could I try it first. So he aggreed and last weekend CircuitFreak installed his Koni Yellow shocks under my car with some help from Mux. Thanks guys

By the way CircuitFreak was supprised about OEM front shocks even me too, I never seen them before.

Back to the Koni Yellow.... I must say that the car drive more diffrent than OEM shock. The car drive nicer, harder and stable but in other hand I need to get use to it, I feel like the car loose some grip or something. Maybe I need to drive the car few times and get use to it. Also I think we need to adjust the front shocks again

Another one problem, since I lowered my car last time I noticed that the car height on the front left side (driver side) are lowered than the right side.

If you look at my other post my back left side (driver side) also got the same problem but I solved them when I saw that the left 4 links are bend and CircuitFreak helped me once again to replaced them from his spare one. So the back side are solved

Now back to the front problem topic, so I tought that the problem of front side could be because of the OEM shock, so after we replaced the koni yellow the problem still not solved. Right know could some one tell me what else I need to check?

i dont think the shocks have anything to do with ride height. its the sprins that say how tall you will sit. So just measure the height of the squished springs (when on car), perhaps one of the springs "sat" down a bit more than other. If thats not the case, just measure all the height distannces of both struts, so you can determine where the difference is.

[banpei]

I believe someone mentioning having a difference in height as well, however his problem was having two different front control arms (one was a TE71). But I can't remember who it was.

[CircuitFreak]

Adjust again?
Are they to stiff or is there to much difference between left and right?
