TRD Springs need short stroke shocks?

Apardal,

This has been discussed time and time again on the board, there are several threads in which I believe you also participated in which it was stated countless times that if you have springs over 4Kg or so, you will either need to go shortstroke to make sure your springs do not come loose, or accept that they come loose and drive with that setup. Don't act all surprised at the end result mate Smile You can only use long stroke with weaker springs or springs that have a progressive part build in.

KONI AE92 front shocks will fit nicely, but rear short strokes I still haven't had in my hands, they say camaro rear KONI shocks can be made to fit fairly easily (has a bigger ring at the bottom or something). If you search well you should be able to get a full setup for 300 to 400 euros.

Tokico HTS has short stroke shocks for all fours of the hachi, they will set you back around 550 USD + shipping and import.

Both solutions require you to cut and weld the struts (or get 6cm spacers but that sucks).

Greetz,

Moved down under, no more hachi Sad
