I recently picked up an '84 GTS for autox and track day use. I've been reading and researching for a couple weeks, mainly looking for aftermarket suspension options. I'm quite surprised by the lack of quality options offered.

The guys that race them seem to all be using home-made options around Koni struts, a threaded collar, and T3 camber plates. That's all well and good, but where are companies like KW and Ohlins? I'd think such a popular car wouldn't be ignored.

Searching in Google yields options from Megan, D2, and Ground control with KYB AGX struts. No thanks.

So, what options do I have? 

most 86's use trd short strokes or the HTS with kg/mm or trd springs. *need to shorten the front housings* to retain travel.

 

sorry. edit to clarify. 

 

shorten the front housings to retain proper travel of the trd/hts short stroke inserts.

didnt SCC do a project and built a set of somethings only to have ...tien? come out with a set with the same specs?

Sticky, that combo is pretty much what I've seen used by people on Club 4AG.

GCMBob, I remember a suspension build in SCC too. I'll have to look up what issue it was and start digging.

Has anyone else heard the rumors of KW releasing an option for the Corollas?

For anyone else wanting to read the SCC articles on Project Corolla here's the links.
