TOM's Advox Comfort Series coilovers 98&up GS

**PRiCE DROP**

Up for sale are my TOM'S Advox coilovers. They are extremely high end, high quality which makes them a vary rare find. I have ridden on a couple of different coilovers for a GS, and this is by far my favorite. Unlike other coilovers that ride like complete crap, these remind you that you still own a Lexus. These are the Comfort series. Specs are a respectable F:9&R:6.3kg/mm. Something that was important to me and I found in this setup was the quality and performance even at a very low ride height. Thats why I stayed away from the Tein Comforts; they didn't go low enough for me and at their lowest level, they rode pretty shotty. The JIC VIP FLT's were too stiff; felt like I was driving my old DC2. Those had a 12kg/mm spring rate up front. The cost on these new are $3630 plus shipping and wait time from the motherland. Members can vouch for me here and on www.houston-imports.com

I am asking $1700 plus your oem springs/shocks.

If you haven't heard of TOM's, they are the premier tuner for Lexus; just as AMG is for Benzes. The company has been around since 74' dominating Le Mans, JGTC, All Japan Formula 3, Macau Grand Prix and complete victory in Korea Grand Prix. So if you are looking for something just to drop your car, go cut your springs or something. But if you are like me and are a true enthusiast; who wants true race inspired coilover that are specifically designed and balanced for the Aristo frame, highest quality craftmanship and materials, this is it.

This is a single tube, twin piston design with Tom's patented rubber chamber type ADVOX system. Includes upper pillow ball mounts and wrenches.

These are actual pics right before the install:
