georigg Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Richard, Just to amplify Homer's reply the short answer is yes however the UK Supra has marginally softer springs fitted than the Jspec and although the UK Supra uses a slightly different shocker(I think on the rear, same on front....going from memory!), I recently changed out shocks and springs for UK spec, but was advised by the supplier that the UK spec and Jspec are exactly the same! By the way, I paid about £62 each for standard/OE shocks, if interested, let me know and I will post the suppliers details. Having changed my Jspec springs for UK I find the ride marginally smoother(removes the constant "bump" as you go over small ridges and uneven road contours). and the ride height rises about 1/2"......not really that noticeable and worth it if your fitting 18" or 19" wheels! Again for info, I changed the shocks first, then the springs so the comparison of spring change only was on "good" shocks. To buy new UK springs from Toyota costs approx £100 per spring, however there are a few of people who have changed out UK standard springs for after-market units so worth placing an ad in the wanted page.

Chris Wilson Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 They will interchange in so fars as they will fit, but their rates are quite different, and the ride heights that ensue will differ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
