Didn't see any other threads with this color TC so I just decided to post my stocky up Smile

Haven't done much so far except put in a new CAI and smoked my tail lights and put a HID kit in there. Ill show pics with the HID's when it gets dark haha Smile

Hope u enjoy. Would love to see others with this color. Haven't seen any that are super modded yet really.

I'd go with my set-up Progress Springs 1.8 drop all-around..with Tokico Struts.

The Stechs are ok...

^ second that motion they have a nice drop for springs, or if you could find some used sprints they also go low i believe that is what chris tc was on.

Subject: Re: Sizzling Crimson Metallic TC Sun Feb 28, 2010 2:13 pm

Just with Progress Springs...

These other guys saying TEIN drive boxes....LoL

I've got a tC with teins...just saying...

Subject: Re: Sizzling Crimson Metallic TC Sun Feb 28, 2010 4:01 pm

Springs are wack, just save up for a used set of coilovers. If you buy a set of springs then a set of struts to get a comfy ride you'll eventually spend 4-500 anyways. Shop around the forums, I've seen used k sports, teins, etc sell for 4-500. Just sayin, haha. Hey Greg is Home Depot a reputable car part maker? lol

coilovers FTW!! just because i had TEINS on my box doesnt mean i never been in a tc with teins. ride nice and handled well. omar does have a point by the time you have a nice spring and strut setup you could have a nice set of used coilovers.

In Fact I get a FAT Discount form Home Depot becuz I promote their products! geek

Coil-overs for the tC are ok...PLease avoid Ksport, Megan Brands they are crappy and you will regret having them...Get the TEIN's w/ the adjustable Dampers...or a better quality Brand of coil-overs...

Subject: Re: Sizzling Crimson Metallic TC Mon Mar 01, 2010 4:04 am

Not true.... I have K-sports and they work great I put 1000 miles a week on my car and I have had them since june of last year and they still run great. Big jay has them too and hes never had a problem either.

we may not have the same car but I bet we have a similar suspension so the way my car is going to take to coilovers wont be to different.

The best thing somebody could tell you man is do your research... the internet is full of reviews on anything you get for your car.

like greg said though the suspension is a great place to start.

I have friends that have had the Ksport Brand coil-overs for their tC's...and they say it "junk"...along with Megans...etc...

Thats why I prefer a good Spring/Strut combo myself!
