sounds to me like your rear shocks are toast.

Aren't you running your large speaker box? That may add some weight to make the rear go lower too.

I was thinking that too, but when you think about it, the springs are the ones keeping up the car, not the shocks. Shocks hold a bit of potential energy but they won't effect the ride height in conjunction with the springs.

And like EvoluScion stated, sub boxes are pretty heavy. Maybe you can post a pic of how your car stands and we can get a better idea of what's going on.

Maybe you should just get coilovers, then you can adjustem how you like. Like Ruther, or I think Todd might have his if he never sellem yet. No shipping...

Thats how mine was with the tanabe springs installed. Once there was any weight in the back, the back was lower than the front.

I texted him, and I seen him today when we were helping with the community cleanup at the playground so he knows. He may not want to sell maybe. When Todd comes back from Oahu then I'll ask... there might be a hood spoiler and wing available too..

Peace

Springs not available, Todd said he might have some other goodies of his you might want to look at though. For the Fab hood spoiler and wing, already painted BOP.... Maui Scions special sale, $350, no shipping costs, as is. Cannot beat that.

hey Junya! i think the springs u get on ur car the rate is different from stocks and from other aftermarket brands... some times when u have something heavy in the back for a while it will make the springs compress more and causing them to sag like how it is now. the only way to fix that would be to buy another set of springs... i might be selling my coilovers soon... but before i sell em i'll have it shipped out to Tein for a rebuild. as for my flares i think i might be keeping them for a while... looking at a different set of rims. if you want i can have a set of flares remade for u if u like??? try look at the different forums u'll find some guys sellin' springs for super cheap. if you want we still get that fab hood spoiler and wing for sale.... call ron if you like check em out.
