i bought these new from a mr2 owner like 2 years ago. I like the handling of the car with these, but i dont really push my car hard on the turns. Paired with kyb agx shocks the ride is very stiff, i can deal with it but not for long, i need to get tokicko shocks.

These springs came with my 93T. They're also matched up with tokico's in the front and oem struts in the rear. Personally, if you want to daily drive your car, don't get these. They're really stiff, but I got use to them. I'd rather go for something else with comfort since I mainly just use my car for the street. But I can't complain, they came with the car. I just don't like how my rear sits lower than the front. If I had a choice, I'd rather go for S-Techs

have them on my daily driver. really stiff wouldn't really recommend them for a daily driver, but the drop is awesome if you don't mind the bounce. i'm used to it now though.

They have an enormously high spring rate up front and a normal spring rate in the back, resulting in a rough ride and miles of understeer. If you care at all about handling or ride quality, I'd really recommend getting a different spring.
