I've been driving my 89 Supercharged MR2 for 2+ years now on Tokico Blue struts & Eibach springs. I've never really been happy with the combination & I think that I have blown out my left front strut as it bottoms out on fast high speed corners when I hit a bump. I don't use my MR2 as a daily driver & only drive it in nice weather on "fun" drives. I don't want to get beaten up when cruising but I also want something better for high speed canyon carving.
I'm worried that coil overs will be too harsh but I'm sure that they can deliver in the handling department. If I stick with springs & struts I was thinking of getting the Koni adjustable struts as I've heard great things about them. :naughty: I like the ride height but my Eibach springs seem to be to soft & since they are progressive springs they seem to have too little coil travel. Here are some pics of the springs in a compressed form on flat pavement.
Any suggestions? :chug:
