Guest Joey A Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Hey I have no idea about the suspension sorry, good to see more scottish supra's on the forum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxluc Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Some Supe's came on Bilstein shocks from factory. I guess your one too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supranature Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Steven, the shocks need top be changed IN PAIRS, not a full set. A new set from Toyota will be rather expensive, your best bey would be to pay your membership, then post a "Wanted" ad in the classified section. There are guides on here for changing the shocks. The rears are a doddle. Welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistonbroke Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 I would remove whatever set the offending part is on, be it front or rear. Then get a set of CW's to match the bilsteins. They'll be as good, if not better than the stock ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porky1978 Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Yeah, get in touch with Chris Wilson on here. j80leo has a set of his and recommends them very highly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveR Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 I've got a set of OEM coilovers off my 1995 J-Spec TT (RZ) that I want to sell. I'm pretty sure they're not the Bilsteins (although I haven't actually checked), but they'd be a hell of a lot cheaper than buying new from Toyota.
