UCF20 LS400 Gets New Tanabe Super Low Form Damper Coilovers!
Kyoei USA was proud to participate in the install of the Tanabe Super Low Form Damper Coilovers in our good friend’s 96 LS400. To our knowledge this is the only car in possibly the entire country to have these coilovers installed. These are ordered from Japan and not even available on the Tanabe USA website.
This car previously had Ksport coilovers for roughly a year of daily driving. They served their purpose well but he wanted something stiffer where the valving was actually correct and could control the spring rates better. The new Tanabe’s were a welcome change. The ride is definitely stiffer but everything is very well controlled and it rides awesome!! He went with the “Hard” option which uses 26kg front and 20kg rear springs. For such a high spring rate you’d imagine they would ride way too harsh but that is not the case. For guys that like a controlled stiff suspension for their Lexus, these coilovers are the best we’ve ever rode in.
