Topic #46394 17 posts Started by sugarfree
Yea I just purchased a set from www.hopupracing.com. I know were not supose to advertise, but i thought it was a great price. Since theyre usually like $1200 per set. From a previous discussion on a thread, theyre supose to be as good as teins and Ksport coilovers. Yea i got them for $895.00 shipped. Just a heads up if anyones interested.

i have ksports on my se-r and love'em... glad to know d2 has coilovers for the celica! this year ill be cleaning up and getting the car prepped for some more power.... cannot wait! make sure to measure your lenghts before installed. theres a min and max so make sure your threaded enough for safety.. unless you plan on really lowering it than i doubt youll have a problem. when you get you alignment make sure to let them know the top bolt at the nuckel is notched. i was told they couldnt align it becasue they couldnt get enough camber out to make spec.. pm me if you need any help w/ installing!
Awsome. Ill keep you in mind. I hope there shouldnt be any problems though. I might need more info on the alignment. The "top bolt at the knuckle is notched". Ill have to figure out what you mean. Im not sure what that is.

Wow, thats an awesome price. I hope the sale last during summer, because I'm still in school. Let us know how the ride goes with them installed.

The rides good. I have it at full stiff. I dont know why there 32 way adjustable. I dont see a point in street cars having that adjustment. I havent gotten around to softening them up, but I will later. I think these coilovers are cool. The install wasnt so bad. Lowering the ride up and down, from my view, you have to remove the wheel. You dont use the "coilover wrenches", you just turn the spring. You can adjust camber in the front and rear. Pretty neat.

When installing these coilovers its a good idea to buy the new sway links from that one site. Forgot the name. I should of done that. I havent taken any turns quick or anything, I still want to add strut bars in the front and rear. For $895.00 shipped, best coilovers ive ever rode on.

you should run them on full soft and turn them up from there...
ummm if you arn't using the wrenches to break the two perches loose from eachother you arn't tightening them well enough against eachother and that my friend will cause them to rattle and move up and down...thats not good...

That is probably because the coilovers are mainly ment for the track, not the road.

You don't need the wrenches to adjust the hight of the car, just when you tighten the spring.
