Good to know, I'll keep that in mind..
What settings do you have the dampers on?

Re: Tofu - Phil's JZX100 Tourer-V
Front full hard
Rear around 2/3 - 3/4 hard
Kts sway bars f & r (which I believe are the stiffest?)

Re: Tofu - Phil's JZX100 Tourer-V
that sounds like a pretty firm setup..
you might have to go with a 16kg spring up front and put the 12kgs on the rear..
did you see much difference with the sway bars? im contemplating on a set as well. did you put them both on at the same time?

I read on jzxworld that sway bars are they best modification to do on JZX cars as they increase grip and decrease body roll

Re: Tofu - Phil's JZX100 Tourer-V
sway bars are one of the best modifications you can do to any car. They are amazing and the most understated modification you can do.
Usually people drop it low add some big wheels. But they keep scrubbing on hard turning cause no one cares about the stiffness.
Do sway bars before coilovers and then make the judgement call

Re: Tofu - Phil's JZX100 Tourer-V
Quite comfortable and smooth ride.
Surprising how many people don't believe it's on Coilovers after they have been in the car.
Reasonably happy with rear spring rate just front feels a little soft.
Put rear bar in and made turn in much sharper, more tail happy, but only did a quick test drive like that. Front went in the same day.
Wouldn't have it without the bars now.
A lot more stable and less body roll
Also less comments on my driving from the passengers seat haha

I went 14kg/10kg with mine. Same deal as ch4sernz, doesn't even feel like it's on coilovers, until you hit a real rough patch on the road and then you get the typical pillowball 'bang'. I run mine full hard all round, could definitely go 16kg/12kg for a street setup while still retaining ride quality I reckon.

Re: Tofu - Phil's JZX100 Tourer-V
I'll see how it all goes once fitted but it looks like KTS swaybars will be in order.
Update:
I couldn't refuse..
I've also ordered some 25mm spacers so the fitment should be mint when it's all fitted with tyres.
Once fitted, the fitment will be:
18x8.5 @ 15P (225/40/18 Dunlop SportMaxx)
18x9.5 @ 15P (245/45/18 Dunlop SportMaxx - all I had laying around which would fit on the back)
