Here's an old pic of mine for you, although this is a Eibach/KYB setup on stock rims. This is how the Eibach's will sit, the rear will sit lower. The TEIN springs will look more even.

yeah.. i dunno if i want that all around uniform drop.... but it looks good on black... i wish i had any color but mine.

Welcome Annnnnnn! :wink:

It nice to have another cheerful person join the family. I'm overwhelmed by the responses you've received in just a couple days. This has to be the friendliest car related website on the net.

"Sebastian" sounds great. We look forward to seeing pics sometime.

If you need any questions answered, the FAQ section has great info on how to search or post pics. Of course, you can always contact any of us Mods with your questions.

Again welcome to SolaraGuy!!

Enjoy!

LOL!! yesss i know!! u should see my rear bumper... i didnt pull the car in all the way... and my mom closed the garage on it...

but yeah. i honestly came on the solara on a fluke.
my ex was a car salesman at toyota at the time... and i was looking for a newer civic ex 5speed. but i couldnt find one. i didnt have a car for 9 months and had my best friend driving me to school and everywhere else i needed to go... so he showed me the solara. i didnt even want it. i only bought it because it was 5 speed and i could take it home that day.

but so far, im quite happy with it.

thanks everyone!

Dude, the only reason she's getting so many friendly responses is because she's a good looking girl and most of hte guys on here are single and LONELY. If she was a dude, this would NOT be happening. This is what makes some forums a joke. ITs about cars, face it no one on here has a chance of getting with this chick so CHIllL

dude... why u mad??!

i've read other posts where the person who posts their intros never even come back to respond to it... so that might be it.
but im here to learn. like my one of my first posts said. i dont know nearly as much about toyotas as i should. so im here to learn.

by **solow1605** » Mon Jun 19, 2006 11:37 pm

i'm not mad, i'm just pointing out that a lot of the people on these forums are PERVS. i mean you're definitely fine and the fact that you like cars is even hotter. No hatin from this fella right here <---

do you like your setup??
what do you guys reccomend??
or is it just prefrence??

by **SolaraBlue** » Tue Jun 20, 2006 12:02 am

eibachs will sit lower in the back rather than the front. teins will sit lower in the front rather than the back. personally i like the way teins sit. looks more agressive. either way you go most people would say you should buy aftermarket struts aswell. either kyb or tokico (any others?). i have tein springs on stock struts and the ride is fine. no odd noises or bouncy feeling etc (keep in mind ive only had them on for a few months)... how long that will last, i dont know.
all in all i think it comes down to personal preference.
if you dont mind spending a little over $1000 you can also get tein coilovers which you can adjust to your liking. though, that may be going overboard.
