Default My new Progress Coilovers for project tC

I have been building a project car to tour the country with one of my colleagues, Neil Tjin and we were truly in need of a coilover system that was durable and could meet our needs. We turned to our friends over at Progress for some help. Here is a sneak peak of what it should look like:

the front and rear coilovers installed as well as the rear rear anti-roll bar, installed with new end links;

I'll post more pics in the near future, right now the car is being stripped for the audio/video system and should be going into the body shop right after that. These coilovers should be out in the market in the near future.

Mr. V,

The Progress coilovers are on the way to Florida to be installed on the tC in the next couple of days. The HRE's are being made as we speak and the wide body kit is also on the way. Once the Progress coilovers are installed I will post pics for you guys to check out. We installed a set of Progress coilovers on a WRX a couple weeks back and it drives incredible and tucks like you won't believe. Just wait till you see how the 19x10.5 and 19x11's will be tucked under the wide body flares of the tC, it’s going to be wild!

Be good and I’ll keep you posted on how the install comes out.

Lates,
Neil T.

That's to cool! Thanks....
I'm just trying to fit in with the Scion community and do some of the cool things like my younger bro Gene did with his xB. Now that the xB is gone, I have to step it up some with my tC and what better way to start things off then with a set of Progess coils and custom HRE wheels!

Ill keep you guys posted as the build-up continues.

We are doing the install today on our tC iback in Florida. I will have updated pics of the suspension this weekend of both the front and rear Progress coilovers installed.

I got to see them in person and the Progess stuff speaks for itself, truly a work of art !

I have worked with Kei-Office suspension and other great coilovers in the past, and I have to say that these Progress coilovers for the tC are one of the best units I have come across in some time.

As soon as I get the pics Ill post some of them up....

Till Then,
Neil T.

To answer your question...I didn't say that, but the Progress coilovers are definitely up there. The Kei-Office stuff on my 240 is out of this world and the Progress coil's on the tC are definitely in the same ball park!!!

Thats all,
Neil T.
