VIS Coilovers for Gen3s available!

[SpectraBlueCam]

The Canadian distributor for VIS coils and other products is Total Performance Source (TPS). They are also the Canadian distributor for NOPI. Located in Newmarket, and their phone number is 1-888-202-3335.

The coilovers retails in US for $350USD. The price quoted to me by TPS is $625CDN (a fair price considering the costs of shipping, brokerage, and duties) plus tax and installation. The installation charge is $125 "cash". When all is said and done, it will be about eight bills.

I also asked about the install deal for guys like Phi, Dickson, and Leon who are looking for an installer for their suspension. He quoted me about $150 to $175, negotiable depending how many cars we bring.

Anyone interested can speak with Jeff Marshall at the above number (after 1pm). VIS also makes Gen4 coils. The price should be similar.

BTW, these are coilover sleeves, not true coilovers.

Adjustibility is up to 3 or 4 inches.

Best things come to those who wait?? :wink: I can't have a big ole' fender gap with my 18 OZs. :grin: It's only because the H&Rs are too good. They haven't sagged one bit.

What's the difference between coilover sleeves and true coilovers?

This thread is back from the dead...check the dates bro. The last post to this thread before you was July 2001.

Sleeves

The only thing you can adjust is ride height.

Coilovers

With these, you can adjust 36 different characteristics of the suspension, not just ride height.

Damn. 9 year old thread

[projektvertx]

this reminds me of a couple of weeks ago when I revived a thread from 2004 in the "General Camry Discussion" section

[bigbird]

who cares about the date...its a valid question and at least he searched

he left out one VERY important thing that especially applies to us. you DONT get a matching shock sompression rate with coilover sleeves...which is important if you want stiff springs or want to ride low. our stiffest shock option (tokico blue) is no where near the stiffness of even a modest coilover setup. however, a few guys have used teh Ground Control setup with tokicos and while the shocks do ware out faster...they have a lifetime warranty so you blow them..they replace them.

Huh. I didn't even realize that. Dang that was along time ago. The person who started this thread probably isn't on TN anymore. Is he even alive?
