If you going to change the springs, change shocks too unless you want a bumpy ride lol. But hey non one has complained yet, ask eye8pussies he has those DropZone shocks off ebay and they work just fine.

Definitely Tokico, best you can get for the Gen 3 as far as I know. Intrax, H & R, and Eibach are the only really good springs I know of specifically for gen 3. Anything else isn't worth the money IMHO.

try the search springs and match them with the search struts. great combo IMO.

just remember to get a TRD or whiteline rear sway bar too, makes it all worth while.

3rd Generation

There are at least a couple good threads on suspension mods here, one that I can think of on top of my head started by Venom5, I think.
