Finally Installed !! JDM TRD Suspensions !! - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

Gachinto · 06-22-2007, 01:42 AM

So after a year or two of deciding and waiting and selling... I have finally installed the set of JDM TRD suspensions I carried from HK~

Not a huge difference, feels more bumps on the road but less rebound. Max cornering speed could have been better (cuz of bad tires) but definitely feels more in control. But every time I cross a speed bump I would have to go VERY SLOW or ANGLED, scratched the bottom 4 times already.

Nothing much just feel like sharing!

I will probably start doing some major clean up and maintenance during this summer; seafoaming, tb cleaning, intake cleaning, flush most oil and use synthetic, swap a K&N high flow air filter... etc~ Any more suggestions?

BTW I drive a 99 LE A/T~ You guys will be seeing lots of questions from me this summer!
Cheers~

Well that sounds great~ Driving a family sedan really makes me feel leftout most of the time in local car communities.

PMed!

I did some research back then when I was trying to sell the set. Basically the JDM set I brought from HK is from "WayDo" factory in Japan. Do a search under my name and TRD suspension or something...

Here ya go! Altho there are really nothing much to see after a suspension swap, it can only be FELT!

Well at least they are obviously clean and shiny!

Haven't polish & wax for a LONG TIME~ Going to restore the paint this summer!

and I also made a sign!

(Why would it show tho...?)

Actually here it is:
JDM shocks for USDM camry?

Edit:
OH and my sign works!

Hey you took that pic at CC! I just realized that, I used to go there a lot.

Even though you put on the suspension, doesn't seem like there is much of a drop. And HUGE sidewall on ur tires....

Yeah not much drop, fortunately. I'd hate to scratch the bottom when passing speed bumps~ I already have to go VERY SLOW to pass speed bumps and my car is not even an exotic / sport

About the sidewall, proves how much body roll I got before the suspension, plus I tend to push PRETTY HARD around corners...
