Can anyone tell me what the spring rates are for the D2s?

I know these so far

Cusco have 7kg/mm front, 5kg/mm rear

G4 have 7.5kg/mm front, 6.2kg/mm rear

would be nice to include the D2 data as well :)

Cheers in advance...

Assuming the track spec D2s are stiffer then the street spec... a fair assumption to make... then the Cuscos would be softer then all of them. But nice and comfy yet stable...

Yeah you pay for what you get with cusco's. I just need something decent, but not over the top. The D2's seem to be the sweet spot. BanGn had track D2's and now he has Street one's. He said they're still firm yet it's a bit easier on his kidneys :lol:

there are a few lowriders on this forum including myself, i ride around 6cms off the ground daily, what springs will let u do that while maintaining ride quality.

^^^thats fine, since your making use of there abilities.. i've been in a couple of stivos with coilovers riding say 30cm drop so a standard king spring lowering and the ride is painful with coilovers could develop hemeroids from all the sudden drops and kicks hurts your **** and your back..

Lmao it's whoring...but...it's like, still a discussion over coilovers. What are you running atm suspension wise man? I'm just stuck with 35mm drop with Lovells Sport lows.

Currently got Tein S-Tech springs on shot, stock shocks. They are getting a little bouncy these days, and I'm itching to get back to the track, and need to upgrade before then. I don't want to put any more stress through these shocks then needs to right now.

I just wanna ride lower, and be able to corner better, a lot better. Riding low on 65mm drop super low's is ok I guess, but if you put something in the car? Spring sag. I like the idea of coilovers because it's like riding around on 4 poles. I was going to get rims, but then I thought, "No...wait I'll spend the money on something that will actually enhance the performance of my car.". That's all.

"No man is mountain...except banGn"

Oh yeah hey spec_black...post something. I wanna see the funny big balled wolf thing in your avatar hahahaha.

I thought that getting HD shocks will stop the car from sagging with people in the car...Correct me if im wrong

It will but not much. Will sit sag somewhat. Coilover's = poles lol. Like potholes? hahaha.

Ive got shot shocks and im riding on king superlows, when i put 3 people in the back of my car the drop is only minimal (1 - 1.5 cm max)...In the end is your choice, do you want a super stiff ride and be able to take it to the track and get good results or do you want a stiffer than stock ride and be able to take it to the track and do ok...Thats if you want to take it to the track

1 - 1.5 cm???? Are you sure? I have 35mm drop only and when I have 3 people in the back I have like...no gap left. It sags like crap. Plus my shocks aren't shot. Interesting.

im getting d2 coilovers direct from the manufacture

got quoted $1350 shipped to my house

cheapest ive seen so far

whoa...last post was 7th June

hmm..im posting abit late

Who cares if you're posting late lol. Spec...where did you get that price from? Are you SURE they are for the ZZE122/123 chassis though? Last time I looked $1350 was for Honda based chassis etc. Ours cost more 'apparently'.

I know a certain supplier who would be interested to know of this price.

      2001 Toyota Camry wagon passenger side locks not working

      Had a similar issue with my 2003 Camry sedan. I'm think the mechanism might be bit stiff, so removing the door card and spraying the locking cable (the one that pushes the lock knob into the lock and unlock position on the interior door handle) with some Innox might work to loosen up the old grease and get it working again.

      2007 - floor mats

      Hi Ed, Hmm that's a tough one mate ..short of going to Toyota to get genuine and no I doubt they would laugh at you as it's a sale and money is tight right now. I am not sure if you are on Facebook or not but I have seen an advert on there for what looks like superb floor mat sets that do seem excellent quality and a wide range but like most things now they are not cheapish. My best advice is source some good quality ones and search online for someone who offers embroidery as some do tradie shirts and logos on clothing it may be worth a phone call to those sort of places as I know a local one to me does all sorts of work on many things related to embroidery or an alternative choice is the online sites like Temu... EBay etc Let us know how you get on mate good luck. KAA

      2001 Toyota Camry wagon passenger side locks not working

      Gday, I've got a 2001 Camry wagon which has been having locking issues for a while now, just started occurring out of the blue. There is no fob so we manually unlock and lock from the driver side door, however the rear and front passenger doors consistently have issues. Either when we unlock one or both doors don't unlock and must be unlocked from inside the car, or when we lock it one or both don't lock and the car beeps. To fix that, we open the door, lock it from the inside, the lift up the handle and close the door before releasing the handle. That fixes the locking issue. When testing the locks from inside the car, I can see that they partially lock and unlock, so I'm wondering if they need to be replaced entirely or if there's some other way to fix it. Cheers

      2002 Hilux Engine Replacement

      I have a 2002 Hilux that is meant to have a 5le engine but i think it was replaced with a new engine with a turbo before i bought it. Its a different engine compared to what is in the manual - eg the alternator is at the bottom not the top as per the manual. The engine is seized - tried roll starting downhill and wheels just locked up. I cant find what the engine is. Any ideas on where I would find it? Also 5LE engines are hard to find - any ideas on what else i could put in? Does a 1KZ fit?

      Engine conversion

      I have a 2002 Hilux that is meant to have a 5le engine but i think it was upgraded to a turbo version before i bought it.
