AE92 sedan suspension upgrades

[freakinbox]

I was taking a look at the sr5 front shock and spring, and the sr5 ones I have... I couldn't really find a difference. They look the same to the eye, like for the casing and such. The spring is thicker on the gts one, but next time I get ahold of a spring compressor I will take them apart and see. Was going to when I swapped out my spring but meh.

I agree with Flashmn on the sway bars, they should fit.

As for suspension, go with Ksport coilovers, after driving Minesh's car I was surprised as to how well they handled.. btw his car was about 1inch lower than my car and I'm already at a 1.8inch drop.

You will probably need to replace your rear shocks since that is where the ends of the sway bar attaches. The original shocks on cars that were sold without sway bars didn't have the attach ears/brackets on them, but the aftermarket shocks that I have seen (KYB & Monroe) have the necessary attach points. From the photo, you are also missing the "dog bone" links for the back. I think I have an extra set of those in useable condition, if you need them I'll give them to you.

I am not sure, but on the front, I think you will need to swap the lower control arms, to get those attach points.

You might be able to fabricate some ears/brackets for the front, but on the back they are welded directly to the shock tube.

I have seen some guys running the tein springs on there ae-92 how is this possible what year car are they getting them from ??????

Probably AE100 series, they fit if you use the whole package.

I have yet to see an AE92 without a rear sway bar.

[djace7777]

yea I read that so just ae100 struts springs bolt right up thats cool defintally gives more options

[Flashmn]

Yeah, they should bolt on.

[djace7777]

I may go to the local wrecker and pull of the whole strut and spring assembly for 15$ JSUT TO CHECK put it in just to see for placement but that would work man cool has anyone done it suucesfully

We are not so lucky in the USA. There is a lot of good stuff we don't get.

Same up here, we didn't even get threads for the rear sway bar on canadian spec sedans.
