TRD and Eibach at the SAME just rebadged.....they're the same quality, same ride, same drop (depending on your car..V6 or I4)

Well it'd be better then OEM ride of course. Probably much more planted and stiffer ride, but not to the level of coilovers. TRD would be a good brand to go for, reputable, just like Eibach.

just making sure that we are comparing apples to apples, what TRD has so far just lowering springs. they are non-adjustable. after they are installed, they may settle down a bit lower but that's it. the ksport coils are fully adjustable with both height and stiffness.

to answer your question, yes TRD is good, it must be, otherwise toyota and TRD wouldnt approve of them and they wouldnt be covered under warranty. they are very firm and stable. comfy ride on good roads, a bit bumpy on bad roads.

x2. I knew this guy's username looked familiar lol.

+1 on what netforcer said regarding the k sport coil overs. H+R only drops the car 1.4-1.5 inches front and rear.

i emailed several companies already as well to see which of them are going to be making coils.

you can email or PM BENCA1 regarding ksport coils. i believe he can do it for $875.00 shipped or something close to that amount iirc
