The kits longer coil will give better /smother articulation.The suspension will flex better.

As for down travel,no.That is limited by the shocks length,control arms ect. Does this answer your ???

Ridingontrd · 08-02-2008, 05:55 AM

If you mean for the TN Group buy, they have a bunch of different options. If you already have the shocks, you only neeed the Stage 1 kit which is $349 if the group buy goes through. What's pictured on Toytec's site is what the group buy thread is calling "Stage 3". You have to pm the original poster on TN to get the price for the stage 3.

jbraeckel · 08-02-2008, 11:44 AM

the springs with 5100's already installed w/ bracket relo's is what the group buy is calling stage 3? just the springs are stg1 what's in the middle?

Please note that this Group Buy EXPIRES 08/15/2008 at midnight.

Doug at Toytec has been gracious enough to offer a group-buy on his Bilstein 5100 adjustable coil over kits. These kits allow you almost infinite adjustability of 5100 suspension. The kits are offered in four stages, Stage 1, 1.5, 2, and 3.

Stage 1 - $349.99 - Is for individuals who want to upgrade their existing 5100 set up.

Stage 1.5 - $499.99 - Now available by request. Includes stage 1 kit and adds machined upper assemblies.

Stage 2 - $539.99 - Adds 2 5100 shocks with a LIFETIME WARRANTY (top factory hardware is utilized).

Stage 3 - This is the complete kit including 2 5100 shocks with a LIFETIME WARRANTY, swaybar relocation brackets, and all upper mounting hardware consisting of a machined aluminum upper assembly. PM me for price.
The machined sleeves and nuts are clear anodized for long life and are precision made. The stage 1 kit pictured is intended to be run with the stock top mount and bushings, the spring used is an Eibach coil that is longer and therefore will flex and ride much better than the stock coil on the 5100 if you are running it on the highest setting.

Also, this is a great solution for anyone experiencing the famous "taco lean." Front lift is completely adjustable allowing you fine tune your ride height. No more limited lift options of 0", .87", 1.75", and 2.5".

Also, Exclusive to this group buy: 10% off rear blocks when ordered with a 5100 kit

The normal price of the Stage 1 is $399.99 plus shipping. The group buy price is $349.99 (plus shipping). , saving you $50.00. (pictured below)

The Stage 2 kit is pictured below and includes front 5100 shocks with a lifetime warranty. The price for the Stage 2 kit is $539.99 (plus shipping).

The complete Stage 3 Toytec Kit is also being offered in this group buy. Please PM me for the price of the complete kit (plus shipping). (pictured below):

We will need 20 commitments to lock in this great price. Once we have 20 buyers Doug will begin shipping orders. Sign up below.

Just click his username link on the right and select "Send a private message to Neubs". The merchant has asked not to post the price for the Stage 3 kit in a public forum.

The Stage 3 kit comes preassembled so it wouldn't require a spring compressor to put it in. The stage 2 kit uses the stock top mounts so it would require a compressor to put the kit on. That would be the only disadvantage I could see.

You have to be a member of Toyota Nation to get in on the group buy. So if your not a member already, go join over there and then PM Nuebs. TN does a lot of group buys so its good to be a member over there.

Budisweiser · 08-19-2008, 10:35 AM

Just recieved the stage 3 off the group buy and will install friday. Excellent customer service from toytec, arrived in 3 days. These coil are completly adjustable I believe up to 3 1/2", however come preset at 2 1/2" of lift. Toytec even pre-adjusted my drivers side for the taco lean. I believe when talking to them he said rated to 600lbs? As far as GB price I cant comment either however It was a buy I couldn't pass up for a complete CO setup...
