1983 corona coilovers

[874age]

is there an off the shelf coilover kit available for the t140 corona?

if not what coilovers fit front and whats my options for the back?

Any AE86 coilovers etc with TOYSHOP ENGINEERING (New Zealand) top plates

just getting back to this now...
will everything else just bolt up with the top plates?
or do i need to change anything else?

I personally wouldnt use ae86 struts, for the following reasons:

- you are down grading the size of the stub axle and therefore strength of the wheel bearings. (AE86 weighs 200kg less than corona)
- Stock ae86 brake is 225mm, stock corona is 250mm or 258mm vented if you bolt on ma61/ra65 brakes + rotors.

I have used stock RT142 struts with RA65 vented brake calipers and rotors (bolt stright on) with custom shortened strut by 50mm with a coilover kit welded on and a short stroke KYB shock. Cambertops i have used S13/14/15 Nissan silvia Cusco they fit with filing of about 3mm of 2 of the strut holes. Cusco make a top for the RT142/TT141 they can be found on Yahoo japan, google Jesse streeter he can buy them and send them to you for a small fee.

RA65 power steering steering arms are shorter and give more lock and quicker steering also. Dont use an MA61 supra strut the kingpin angle at the stubaxle is different and it will give +2 degrees positive camber.
