That greddy car has Coils over right? wonder if Scion will provide TRD springs again I don't think they were that bad for price and looks, but never heard any reviews of the ride quality with them. I wonder how that Greddy car ride on public streets.
A couple articles mentioned sway bars and springs would be offered the same day the car goes on sale. I can't recall if they used the name TRD specifically or said Toyota in general. I want to say the aftermarket springs were even intended for original use (dropping the CoG 20mm to rival the gt3 and 360CS) but were decided against in compromise for daily driving comfort and better ground clearance. However, this may or may not have been a rumor.

Personally, I'd rather choose a TRD part over any other manufacture. They have much more involvement with the car from it's inception onwards to production. Even if it isn't the most aggressive (and this isn't always the best anyways), I believe it will continue to be harmonious with the rest of the car.

And my huge bias; I trust a Toyota backed company waaaay more then an independent tuner - even if they've been around for a long time. Generally speaking; more money + better engineers + more sophisticated tech = superior product. Now whether that's true or not... who knows, but it stands to reason :happy0180:
