I'm thinking of selling my JIC Flta's and going back to coilovers... I'm the 2nd owner of these and they got about 21k on them now. No problems with them other than its a rough ride. I either want trade plus $300 or $700 all together. Like I said just a feeler... unless someone has an offer I can't refuse.

Also its a pain to make rear adjustments when the back seat needs to come out.

Did you mean to say stock suspension (struts and springs)?

FLT a1 or a2?

A1's

You still want to go with lowering springs or just back to stock? if thats the case i have a set of Brand New OEM springs.

FYI- if you cut out two rectangular sections behind the seat, you can adjust the knobs.

I want to possibly go back to lowering springs. My car was originally a TRD... and it had all the perks at one point before I had it. So there is no way i want to go to OEM lol looks ugly

geez... Sometimes I feel like sucha jack@$$. simple solutions FTW

I really wanted to go with the flush look but I need more money and time to do that and just riding on coilovers daily gets kind of rough. I see ToyosolV6 and i just want to punch myself in the face for not figuring crap out before I jumped into getting coils.lol

lol, well my car will no longer be slammed. it will be raised up again, since ill have a pretty built engine so i want to see what the car can do a little higher and at higher speeds. lol

if only i had a lil more money and you were closer.. i'd trade you my tokico fronts/monroe rear + tein all around lol.. my maxima is on coilovers and now i want my avalon (even though its the dd) on co's too

this is why after i changed my setup twice i went with a striped down interior and trunk, no rear seats, spare, rugs, jack, liners, everything is gone minus the front seats and console. sounds crzy but it's stupid fun in the corners and when u floor it, exhaust is so much louder especially when you get on it and hear the rush of exhaust flowing. sounds like the exhaust has a vacuum hooked up to it. so sick

I was actually planning on doing this becasue i want to dynamat the interior so bad...i've got to realize that the interiors or solaras are NOISY AS F*#@ lol lots of road noise

I have the stock struts and tein lowering springs (-5k miles tops) however the struts are just about blown, I am onterested in a trade possibly if you still are
