Ground Control for a third Gen?

Hey guys,

Any chance of getting ground-control coilovers to fit a Gen 3 Camry?

Mike,

i think there's 2 sets out there, pretty rare though

one is affordable but really cheap (bad quality/ride)

the second is rediculously expensive, better off getting the tokico eibach set up

theres the VIS which sucks balls.
and the Jic Magics which sucks balls too ( my own opinoin) and its expensive.

I personnally will make my own coil overs. I rather do it this way because I can choose what spring rates I want and what short stroke shock I can get ... My drag setup will end up being 700 to 750lbs in the front and 1000lbs in the back. For street use I would use 500 to 600lbs in the front and 700 to 750 lbs in the back .

what kind of drop will you get with your own coilovers? When will you be making them??

And, how much are the JIC majic ones??

Thanks,

Mike

I agree with what Wraith said, except when you choose your springs rates, i would rather go with 500lbs/inch in the front and 600lbs/inch in the back, just cause i think 700-750 might be a little too harsh, but for drag, the less squat you got in the back, the better....

with my set up , I'm making I can drop it to the point where I cant drive the car any more. because my 16" tires starts to rub big time...

As for the JIC Magic they're going for $1200 for the SF-1 and $1800 for FLT-A2's ...

OOOOHHH!!! B&G suspension does have a set for the 3rd Gens also ...
