I didn't know where to post those because they show you the difference between stock and with my new suspension setup...

it's not appearance, it's performance. but I won't go and tell you how good it is because you would hate me...  s:wink: :wink: s:wink:  

stock...


now...

Very Nice.

What suspension set up have you fitted?

Give us a brief review and change the post title, and we'll move it to the performance forum.

the complete setup is in my signature:

TRD Way-Do 4 way adjustable suspension
C1 spring -3cm
C1 anti roll bar
TRD front strut bar

I left the setting on "2" (1 is "soft" 4 is "hard") and it's way harder than stock.

roll is almost inexistant now... the car seems to be even more stuck to the road. power-on understeer disappeared. the limit is much more difficult to find when on an open road...

it can corner much faster (would I dare to say 25-30% faster? even more?).

the chassis is now superb, I need more power  s:twisted: :twisted: s:twisted:
