FR-S TRD Lowering Springs and Sway Bars releasing soon - Page 21 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Conicelli Toyota parts department called back for their take on it. Final Verdict: these parts can be ordered but the parts guy has to directly order it from Toyota.

There seems to be a bunch of misinformation on them, especially on Toyota's part, but they're good to go.

I ordered 3 sets yesterday and got them in this morning, no problems or stop sale or anything. Toyota will not let you order them if there is a stop sale on them.

Also they have not been removed from the TRD site, you just have to look it up by part number. http://www.toyotaracing.com/trd/part...?p=ptr07-18130

I've got 500 hard miles on them. If anything breaks I'll let people know xD

I saw that TRD wrote 1 1/8” drop on their website?

I read the same thing, and it was on the website I purchased from too. However they still only dropped my car 0.75"

How would you review them? Do you like the feel? Im worried itll be bouncier than stock (at least noticably)

They're great I absolutely love them. Just driving normal on new road there's really no difference, however you can tell how less forgiving they are when you hit a bump or pot hole. You can also tell they're stiffer once your in the corners. Also I have still be able to get over every reasonable speed bump and up any reasonable driveway.

Does the rear end jump over large bumps at highway speeds? I had this issue with the GC coils and don't want to waste money on springs that'll cause the same issue

yes that. I would hate a car that loves to bounce.

No definitely not, they are a little stiffer but that's it
