Lowering Springs And G6 Grill

[TheSpannerMonkey]

I have decided to keep the current wheels on my car for the moment but i want to lower it, i have found some gmax springs on eBay dropping 40mm, there are several sets for around a £100, but i wanted to see if anyone has fitted these and what they are like, and also just general ideas on what the best to go for etc,

also i am after a g6 grill, has anyone got one for sale or know where i can find one

any help would be appriceated

ps where do you guys get those car icon things from, i want one

[G6-R]

The G6 Grill you can order it by your local Toyota dealer , I won,t drop it 40mm with original shocks i would go max 35mm with the original shocks ;)

[sparco_blues]

I have Apex springs with a 40mm drop and they have improved the handling and look of the car, however i have koni shocks too so not sure what it would be like on the stock shocks.

Sport front grill / G6 / G6R is £35 approx from Toyota dealer

[G6-R]

You'll find standard shocks wear out quicker with lowering springs. My front ones went soon after it was lowered so I fitted KYB +20% stiffer ones. The rears were fine though I used the Fensport lowering springs which were superb.

I did the job properley and got the set of Fensport springs and the KYB shocks together.

Handles fantasticly, just after a strut brace and some light weight wheels! Wolfrace 17's weigh a ton!

The suspension on the pre-facelift and facelift mdels are the same so springs and shocks will be the same for both

really? thats good news.

i was wondering if it was the same and what size springs are the pi springs and can you get them from fensport?

[ae111sr]

Fensport will sell you Eibach springs or their own make - nothing else as far as I know.
