We have TRD springs again!

te51levin · 08-04-2009, 09:37 PM

The TRD gods have smiled upon us. We have TRD springs in stock once again! We have been waiting many months for these. Rather than gouge due to rarity, we want to sell them at a fair price. List price is $296 per set. We are offering them delivered to your door for less than that: they are $279 shipped anywhere within the continental US via UPS Ground, or $325 to Canada via USPS Priority Mail.

Many of you know that there is only one other dealership in the country that has had MkII springs in stock, and they've been getting list price for them - more if they found a buyer on eBay - so we feel this is a very fair deal. MkI springs haven't even been in the country for as long as I can remember, but we have them and we want to sell them.

In the interest of fairness, we want these springs to go to people who are going to use them now, not sit on them to make a profit later. There is a limit of one set per customer. Known hoarders need not apply.

We don't take PayPal and we don't have online ordering, so please CALL WITH YOUR CREDIT CARD to place the order. You can call (800)888-6305 or (541)736-3221 to place the order. There is currently very limited stock on these, so don't delay if you want them.

And THANK YOU for continuing to make us your #1 source for genuine Toyota parts!

rotorguy2 · 08-04-2009, 11:27 PM

^^same here man i hate not have any money

YELLOW_MR2 · 08-05-2009, 12:16 AM

I have no money

PORQUE!!!!!!!

Jmoney · 08-05-2009, 12:29 AM

Think you will have a set left in 2 weeks? If you dont think you will is there anyway I could send you like 50 bucks to hold onto a set for me till the 14th of this month

te51levin · 08-05-2009, 12:18 PM

I doubt I will have any in two weeks. We don't do layaway here, and don't have a way to accept a partial payment because it really messes with our bookkeeping.

o6spdracer · 08-05-2009, 12:27 PM

Damn Aaron...this is very tempting. You have a phone call. Phone line was busy. I'll try you again later.

Oteck · 08-05-2009, 02:51 PM

get it while you can, that was my first regret w/ the trd strut bars and it's hurting me for not getting them at the time.

Also does anyone have actual pics of the pro kit? i need something clarified

te51levin · 08-05-2009, 03:19 PM

I have a pic of the TRD springs that I just took this morning if that helps. What do you want to clarify?

como · 08-05-2009, 06:16 PM

Why must you not take pm

I have a stupid question, are these considered "lowered" springs, or are they stock height? I don't know anything about TRD springs, but if they fit my mk1 and are brandy new, I'm pretty interested already...

Well, basically, because it is too convenient for everyone else, and the system gets abused; I end up chasing a dozen PMs where one forum post (or email, or phone call) would get the job done. Plus I can't keep records or customer files like I can with email.

They lower the car. On most cars, it's about an inch, front and rear, depending slightly on what year, what options, what engine/trans combo, etc.

There's an incredibly nice '86 on TRD springs here, if you want to see how a car looks on them:

Hi Aaron. I have a stock 89' N/A. Will the TRD springs really only lower it about an inch? I've heard some people say 1", some say up to 2.25".

I'm asking because I cannot locate a complete set of ST springs (hard time locating them in stock from ST). I really don't want to lower the car more than 1.5 inches in the front or rear.

Thanks.

Yes. Were you able to view the photos of Skaughtto's red '86 on TRD springs? They're on that Flikr page, which I can't get to at work because it's blocked (boo, corporate nannies), but there are several pictures there of his car. Here's a couple other pics of the same car:

Does a set come with 4 springs? Do you have s set left?

I have a 91 Turbo with stock springs/ struts. Will this lower the vehicle by an inch or so?

A.

Yes, but you will definitely want to look at some pictures of similar cars with these springs installed. They are all over the internet, on this forum and other places, so it should be easy to get a feel for how your car will sit with these springs installed.

te51levin · 08-26-2009, 08:22 PM

This deserves a bump. Let's find some good homes for these while we can!

Don't Worry, It's Just Me · 08-27-2009, 04:47 PM

So a set is with all 4 springs? nevermind, didn't notice someone already asked. How many sets you got left for a MkII

o6spdracer · 08-27-2009, 04:53 PM

Yep all 4 springs. If I didn't already have a set I'd buy these! Get them before they are gone!
