i think thats too .. much. u might as well just get air bags. i mean its not a HUGE difference, but it's still noticable. I'd go with teins, or eibach. teins are just a lil bit more, and a lot more reliable.

dont get from racinglab, i've ordered from there. not a good site.
go on Performancecenter.com

and order the exact same set. springs/struts from there.
They are a lot more reliable. they may take a small while, but you'll get what you need. You won't need a camber kit since you aren't lowering your car that drastically imho, but it all depends. good luck.

1.8 and 1.9 is not that hugh off a drop....

You can go as low as 2.5 inches and still be ok esp with stock wheels...

I am dropped 3.2" in front and 3" on the rear of my car right now...

NO!!!! I have a lower drop than that and I dont rub on my stock 17s. The offset on stock Toyota wheels is such that you dont have to worry about it.
