Tanabe Coilovers - Wow!!
I was fortunate enough to be given the chance to get hold of a set of Tanabe Sustec Pro Coilovers for my Turbo 2000 Classic quite cheap. It appears they utilise KYB Gas Filled Struts with Height Adjustable lowering springs and Pillow-Ball Top Mounts with Camber Adjustment.
Does anyone have any experience with these units, i hadnt really looked into them before buying and fitting them. The ride is VERY firm, which i like, but it has made the rear end a little less predictable. Any way of getting round this? Strut Braces, ride height adjustments etc? The ride is set marginally higher on the front as per normal 4WD set ups. (fronts have settled a bit since the pic, they are a bit more even)
Also.... Any ideas what these units are worth here in the Uk?
p.s... this was the first time i have really got my hands dirty doing any work on the car, and the sense of satisfaction of completing the job was amazing... fitted these and a de-cat downpipe in about 4 leisurely hours on Sunday... Good Stuff

Thanks Guys
