Ask Alisha (06toyo chick)...she had one set when she were on her 19's
But she said she got it from Ebay and was maybe copy of the original product...

Sprints have been around for a while, Alisha did have them or has them... The only problem with sprints is that they lower the rear a lot more than the front...

i probably wont get them... just wanted to share. were they any good BTW and what are they equivalent to... Tiens... Eibach... TRD?

[Sebas007]

IF I was a Cali guy like you...I would go with Eibach.

TRD springs (made by Eibach for TRD) drop the ride (1.2F.-1.4R) still get the same confort as stock. Look at my smoked tailights thread to see the result. 200$ (trdparts4u)

Eibach drop the car a bit more then the TRD (1.4F-1.6R). I think it would a perfect drop for me..would be like Biggi_e, Rallevo99. It is 13/64" lower then TRD. 240$ (use goggle with those key words "Eibach 8273.140")

Tein do only I4 engine model springs. Would have to go with the Coil-over. Maybe if you bring your car to their facility they can maybe calculate the rate needed for V6 2004+ Solara...

On a personal note...I would like so much to see JIC Magic make something for us...or at least have a better customer service they answer just 1 email on 2-3 !! I'm trying to get something from them...ask if the FLTA2-RS Custom Set Up would make on the Solara...just answer to bring the car at their facilities to do some testing then they'll send back the data in Japan and so on... ! The worst is that they already did a version of FLT-A2 High Performance Coilover System for Gen 1 guys !!!

Would be cool guys if you take the time to write them about interest for Gen 2 3MZ guys ! They would maybe start something...I don't know if someone can bring his/her car there ??

hey guys, havent been on in a while. Yea, I did have the sprint springs and I bought them off ebay.They were horrible and definitely not authentic. I would not recommend springs off ebay, IMO. Waste of money & ruined the suspension since I also had to get new struts right away also.I asked alot of other gen.2 owners on here if they needed new struts with other brand springs and they didnt. I now have the Tein springs and I love them. Its a nice drop and the rear is sitting nice and low also.Basically I got new tein springs,new STOCK struts, strut mount & bearings for the front. Cost mad $$ just for the front to be done and everything with installation. I coulda bought coilovers almost for the price but decided not to get them

I just took this pic on sunday after I washed the car. thats with the tein springs. my car domain pix is with the sprint. I dont know if you can tell a difference or see the drop. i'm so used to my own car i cant tell lol
