now comes the huge debate of whether or not i should lower on stock struts

leasaunce · 06-16-2007, 10:46 PM

well you can and its up to you really. I can tell you how it feels as I have stock struts (lowered springs) on my camry.

Nice and comfy ride, but they can be abit bouncy at times, especially when you're going over speed bumps.

If you have the extra $$$ to get better struts then I would recommend you to get them. If not stock struts are ok

EDM owns all, screw JDM.

sweet man. well ive been on stock shocks and it hasnt been bad but lowered stance with a slightly squishy/bouncy ride sucked and i got tired of it, so i went shocks too. personally id get shocks and do them at the same time.

Fantastic! Your white coupe is going to look great dropped! Congratulations!! But to answer the question..Go ahead and have new struts and mounts installed too! U won't regret it!

Save yourself labor costs and get it done at the same time. Stock struts are meant to work with stock springs. Go with some Tokicos that are meant for lowered rides. If you're going to go half ass don't 'go' at all.

but sometimes college calls for half assing, so I give you permission

congrats man Im glad you bought em! car is going to look sick bro!

yeah easiest is to replace the shocks at the same time. Tokicos are good, for sure.

And check your upper strut tower mounts, if they are worn, they are pricey to replace,

Yea can't wait to see the Cam lowered. Gonna look much better. If you have the money to save up for struts then do it.

***eyeball96*** · 06-23-2007, 10:43 AM

So.......is it lowered yet? Where's the pics?

midnightmach · 06-23-2007, 06:26 PM

Had enough of off roading eh?, oh and Its the EDM fairy not the German fairy....

95WhiteCamry · 06-24-2007, 01:50 AM

not lowered yet, waiting on struts.

my lame ass finally got paid 2 days ago so now that i got money to spend again, time to buy some struts

_VVTi_ · 06-25-2007, 07:43 PM

i have the exact some springs along with tokico blues... its more tighter handling and ride its very very slightly stiffer then OEM.
I'm not complaining, but I do wish that its more stiffer.

95WhiteCamry · 06-27-2007, 11:24 PM
