se strut quest.

[LostSoul]

so if i got the se struts & add the trd rsb would it be similar if i had the se sports by itself or still going to be bouncy?how harsh is the rides performance?


should i just get the se sport struts?

[kingkakyle]

newer ones are red
older ones are black
same springs though

[LostSoul]

does anyone know why theres two diffrent colors for red & black?



where are the bolts to remove the rear springs?in the trunk or behind the rear seats ? i havent tried looking just a qwick question

[ThatVietGuy]

Behind the rear seats. Or more precisely, buried beneath all the crap in the back.

i have a sle with se sport struts and eibach lowering springs. i had a trd rsb but i sold it. the rsb makes a huge difference in the body roll and will help with suspension performance. the ride quality will always drop if you lower your car. its somewhat bouncy to me but i dont mind as long as you avoid big dips on the streets and all.

how much do sprt struts go for?

I beg to differ... depends on the setup. I just put in my suspension with the KYB-GR-2:KYB strut mounts: TRD springs, and the car rides smoooth now. plus it is quicker and more nimble than with the RSB...

I recommend the KYBs especially if you aren't going to drop the car more than 1.5inches! and they were a lot cheaper than the toy sport ones.

and i have an SE sport...

I would imagine the sway bar with SE struts would leave the UP-and-DOWN motion of the suspension the same, but stiffen the SIDE-to-SIDE feeling motion.

The SE Sport struts would stiffen the UP-and-DOWN motion.

I have the SE Sport but no sway bars... I can see how they would be beneficial from a performance perspective. It is actually more comfortable at 100 mph than at 60 mph. The Sport struts are good for that because it's just long straight roads and the car is mostly only experiencing up and down motion.
The sway bars would help going around corners.

Each of them though decrease the softer, luxury-like ride the SLE has over the Sport.
