Choosing the Right Part
-
Match the chassis code. Product titles list the chassis or model code - for example Z33 and Z34 for the Nissan 350Z and 370Z, XE30 for the Lexus IS range, VA and VB for the Subaru WRX, and A90 for the Toyota GR Supra. Confirm your code before ordering, as visually similar models often use different spring rates.
-
Check the drivetrain and engine variant. Several listings are split by variant, such as Subaru Forester XT versus Non-Turbo (SJ), Infiniti Q50 2.0t versus 3.0t Sport versus Hybrid (V37), and Tesla Model 3 RWD versus AWD.
-
Check the build year. Some applications are year-specific, such as the Subaru Outback 2.5i (BS) 2015-2017 and 2018-2020 listings, and the Lexus IS (XE30) 2013-2020 and 2021+ listings.
-
Choose the spring series. Selected models are offered in more than one option within the same listing, such as Down / Half Down / Super Down or Down / Super Down. Ti2000 Down is listed separately on models where it is offered.
-
Read the listing. Individual product pages carry the specific fitment details, options and included components for that application.
Installation & What You'll Need
Lowering springs are fitted in place of the factory springs, which means the struts and coil springs must be removed from the vehicle and the assemblies dismantled. Installation by a qualified professional workshop is strongly recommended - compressed coil springs store significant energy and require the correct spring compressors and safe handling.
- Vehicle hoist or jack and axle stands, plus wheel chocks
- Correct spring compressors and standard metric hand tools
- A torque wrench and the manufacturer's torque figures for your vehicle
- A wheel alignment after fitment, as ride height changes affect camber and toe
- A check of tyre and guard clearance once the suspension has settled
Always confirm your vehicle complies with the relevant state or territory requirements for suspension and ride height modification before use on the road.
FAQ
What is the difference between RS-R Down and Super Down springs?
They are different drop levels within the RS-R range. Down is the standard drop, Half Down is a milder drop and Super Down is the lower option. Where more than one is available for a vehicle, the choices are shown on the product page.
What is RS-R Ti2000?
Ti2000 is RS-R's premium spring material specification, listed separately on the models where it is offered, such as the Volkswagen Golf GTI (Mk7), Lexus LC500 (URZ100) and Tesla Model 3.
Do I need a wheel alignment after fitting lowering springs?
Yes. Changing ride height alters suspension geometry, so a wheel alignment after installation is recommended to help protect tyre life and handling.
How do I know which set fits my car?
Match the chassis code, engine or drivetrain variant and build year shown in the product title to your vehicle, then check the fitment details on the product page.
