Yea, I work in SD. And the roads are crap! I was all over the road dodging pot holes and bumps. I took off of coilovers and put on some Tanabe nf210's. They are really nice. I think the spring rate on the TRD's are a little stiff, the nf's are only 5% over the stock coils. And I found them for $158.

I'm in Temecula. And I have taken apart my suspension so many times, I have it down pat.

If it fits into my schedule, I dont mind helping you. Maybe you could help me with the Projector retro in return.

Ahh ok sounds good

But in terms of the retrofit, all I can offer is to show you mine, show you the options out there, and provide advising...lol. In terms of the actual work I didn't do any of it.

But if you are down to try and figure it out I'm down to do what I can to help you. I've done lots of research and I believe I have a pretty good idea of the process.
