Maybe I've never used it so I didn't comment. Like I said though, I'd love to see them get shock dynod. If they are really running 800-1000/ea per damper, not including anything else like a real nice setup would cost, I bet this kit will cost 8k. If they sell it for 3k then I'm going to have a real hard time believing that it's as good as a real setup. Fine for entry/mid level, but not to compete against anything like Penskes with ERS or Swift springs.

Had TRD published spring rates and sample damper dynos before?

Swap that sucker lol
already thought about it, but to be honest if I can get 300-350 that would be better then a 550HP supra as in HP to weight Ratio.... FT86 would be around 1-7ish and a supra at 1-7, sometimes it is not about the engine, .....but yes I still thought about it alot..LOL I don't think it would even fit. plus it would throw off the weight distro from front to rear.

The quad exhaust looks cool, but isn't all of that coming off of a single pipe? Seems a little excessive...

hm... the headlights seem to be more pointed in these pictures than in the other ones. Hopefully these ones are final.

Was thinking about that too. Maybe a single exhaust pipe mod will be on my list but that may make it look cheap.

Just get two 4 or 5 inch ovals. It would look way better with duals than quads... Like a side by side shotgun... BOOM BOOM bitches lol

I actually like the quad tips, it reminds me of the exhaust on the GT-R.
