just ordered the strut crossbar reinforcer from cusco. i think im the first to do so. my plan (at this point is to order most of the suspension upgrades. between now and then i hope there will be like a coilover upgrade that will give me a good ride without shaking me crazy. stifeness is fine but so is a good ride. all comments welcome
oh oh squall , you normally have a good reasons behind your comments. i love stiffness and i think ill continue, but i also feel that there will be a high end upgrade of coilover available. what do you think
i'm hoping coilovers are going to be made.. but most aftermarket companies take a few months for them to develop and catch up. i don't know what else is going to be planned at the moment.. but i'm in talks with Tanabe right now.
i did notice a coil over available but it was almost $1700 which is way more than i want to take a chance on. especially when you cant test ride it
any good coilover set is going to cost at least $1K.. but should be less than $2K typically.. $1.7K doesn’t sound too bad.. but like I mentioned.. it's best to wait for more options to pop up. when there's only one or two available.. this early on.. you have to ask yourself if that company rushed thru development to just be able to release their products first..
Over the past 40 years, I've seen all sorts of kits like these. To make them easy to install, they cone with enlarged holes, slots and shims. You'll NEVER see these in the aircraft industry. All parts need to be expertly fitted without undue stress. It takes a lot of extra work, but it's worth it.
Can't wait to see some shots of it up close. Since its aluminum it should be light. If you can I would love to know how much it weights. Cusco makes some very quality items. Im sure this will be nice when you get it.
well, i talked to cusco today. they said the brace is actually coming from japan and that it will not reach us for almost another month. so i wont see it until almost the 1st of june. disappointing, but so it goes.
have you tried talking with juicedhybrid? with some luck, they may already have one in stock, perhaps? Suspension Upgrades for 2012 Prius C, Strut Tower Bar, Chassis Stiffener; Juicedhybrid.com
