4th Generation Pics Megan Racing + Tenzo R Springs Installed Please!

So I've got a 97 Camry LE, and have been trying to find pictures of either of these spring kits installed on a gen 4 to no avail. Found a couple on cardomain, but we all know how good the pictures are on there. If anyone has any pictures, experience, information etc. on either of these spring kits it would be greatly appreciated.

Im lookin for a good drop that will suit 18's eventually, without a bodykit of any kind. From what i've found, these are the ones ive kind of narrowed it down to.

Anything helps!

Yes I realize there's an official picture thread, I've looked at that people dont specify as to what they are running so we can skip that step...

Well, you have a little more searching to do then.

Rdizzle had tenzo-r's on his gen 3 camry with the i4 engine, same springs as far as compatibility goes, so look him up.

And the megans are pure junk, you can find those on here too (i've see a few different pictures of them).

H&R, Eibach, Intrax, and Tein are some good names for springs.

Don't buy the megans unless you have a V6 and are willing to put a spacer in the spring in the back. This is how I got my drop, and also, be prepped for a hard ride. The spring rate is the highest one i've seen out there. Youll probably also need some good struts.

right on, thanks for the quick replies... so apparently megan is out of question... and for the drop im tempted by the tenzo's because of TheKevin's stance. (which is spot on by the way) Seeing as how mines a gen4 with the 4 banger, can i expect much of a difference in the front end ride height? I know on my jetta it wasnt a huge difference unless you use the vr6 strut mounts - any ideas on whether its the same for these bad boys?

out of the 4 brands JCamry94 mentioned none of them have the same drop the tenzo's have (which are apparently 1.8/1.8), the closest were the tein s-tech's at 1.5's.

so far its the tenzo's... anyone else?

Why not get Tokico struts and the Tein S-techs, s-techs on stock struts would definitely make them go out quicker.

^ I too have Intrax, with KYB GR-2 struts in my '95 LE 4-banger. They are labeled as 1.6" front, 1.5" rear. These pics were taken 1.5 years ago, but it still sits the same. Let it be known, Intrax is not as stiff as H&R or Eibach, but combined with my TRD RSB and SPW strut bar I have absolutely no complaints about handling, in fact I can keep up with my friends '98 Audi A4 1.8T quattro in most corners.

My car is pretty much similar to the OP's: '00 Camry i4. I have the Eibach Pro-kit springs (1.2" drop all around) with KYB GR-2 Struts. 215/50/17 Falken Ziex 912's.
